My sincere thanks once again to Amigaboy for his help in tracking down this one.
As anyone who read this thread will know, I've been trying to remember an old F1 race car game I played way back '82/83.

Well, I finally found what it was. Monaco GP by Sega, apparently in 1979. Very impressive for its time,that being the case. Sadly though,it doesn't look like it'll be on MAME anytime soon, a real shame.

Now does anyone else here remember this one?
