Wow! nice old games, classics!!

While we're on about driving games, does anyone remember a VERY early driving game that was black+white screen?
You drove a solid-white car, something like a mini-minor from above, and had to change between 2 lanes to dodge other cars (which were just white outlines) and the odd oil-spill in each lane....

This was the FIRST video game any of us in our area ever saw, even before space invaders? (B+W).
I remember the cabinet being sort of tall like the space-invaders (shown above), but without that cover screen.
I think there was also a 2-speed gear shift, marked "Hi" - "Lo", although that may have been on the 2nd version i saw??
( i remember later ones having 3 or 4 gears etc, way too complicated for me back then hehehe).

anyone?
MM.

MM that sounds like a Lemans/Sprint 1, I have a Sprint 2 which has four speed gears
