About this game
ESPN Speed World is a generic racing game that is made to resemble NASCAR.
The player is given a stock car and can tune the car from the angle of the spoiler, to the setting of the shocks, and up to the pressure of the tires.

There are three different types of speedways to race on: Super Speedway , Short Track and Road Courses with 5 different tracks for each to choose from.
Players can choose to race against the computer that has all 23 other stock cars on the track at once or play head-to-head on a split screen against a friend.
It also featured realistic driving physics.
While it didn't have a NASCAR license, it did have ESPN which broadcasted the races and had NASCAR analyst, Dr.
Jerry Punch, who lent his voice to the game for the color commentary.
About Sega Genesis
Known as the Mega Drive outside North America, the Sega Genesis (1988/1989) was Sega's most successful console and Sonic the Hedgehog's original home, fueling the "console wars" era against Nintendo's SNES. Genesis cartridge collecting is well-established: common sports and platformer titles are affordable, while sports-license and later-era games with smaller print runs can carry a meaningful premium.
Gamevaro tracks ESPN Speed World for Sega Genesis with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding ESPN Speed World to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GEN release dates back to 1994.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
