Trivia:
1) Featured an early racing wheel controller interface with an accelerator, gear shift, speedometer and tachometer. It could be played in either single-player or alternating two-player, where
each player attempts to beat the other's score.
2) Sprites moved along a vertical scrolling overhead track, with the course becoming wider or narrower as the player's car moves up the road, while the player races against other rival cars, more
of which appear as the score increases. The faster the player's car drives, the more the score increases.
The game also featured an early example of difficulty levels, giving players an option between "Beginner's race" and Advanced player's race.
3) First sidescrolling game is Steeplechase
(1975).
4) Game is not emulated.
