Space Racer by Loriciels/Broderbund, 1988.

What if Star Wars Speeder bikes were racing vehicles?

Early three-track racing game, where you can shoot opponents but it uses fuel to do so, so you'll inevitably run out if you do. And dodging opponents is difficult too!

The game runs the first and third tracks in the "colder" cyan, magenta, black and white CGA colour scheme, whilst the second track switches to the warm red, green, yellow and black mode.

The sound is good though, especially the opening sampled music (not shown here) that plays through a basic PC bleep chip!
