Description

Speedway Challenge is a fast-paced card game that's all about the thrill of motorcycle speedway racing. Designed by Terry Goodchild and June Goodchild, this 1990 game is easy to learn and plays quickly, with each game lasting around 30 minutes. In Speedway Challenge, 2 to 4 players can compete, with each player controlling one or two riders depending on the number of players. The game is all about strategic card play, as players aim to outmaneuver their opponents and cross the finish line first. A typical race in Speedway Challenge consists of 5 rounds, with players playing one card per round for each of their riders. The track is divided into three lanes, and players must carefully choose which cards to play to block their opponents or gain an advantage. With the added risk of falls, injuries, start line infringements, or mechanical failures, no two races are ever the same. This means that players must be prepared to adapt their strategy on the fly, making for a exciting and unpredictable game. Whether you're a fan of racing games or just looking for a fun and competitive experience, Speedway Challenge is a great choice, offering a unique blend of strategy and luck that's sure to keep you coming back for more.
