There was a game called "Night Driver" that was similar. It too was simple
graphically, with a pair of dotted(?) lines scrolling downward to indicate
the edge of the road. It would bend right and left -- curves -- and you had
to steer between them. Had a real steering wheel and an accellerator pedal,
possibly a high-low gear shift as well. I know there was a sit-down model,
there may have been a stand-up version as well.

It was incredibly simple, especially compared to some of the high-end,
need-a-pentium-and-3d-video-card games out today, but it was actually a lot
of fun.
