Official description

Road Race was an early driving/racing game developed and published by Sega in early 1976. The game was notable for its introduction of a pseudo-3D, third-person perspective.
Later in 1976, Road Race was adapted into the motorbike racing games Moto-Cross and Man TT, which in turn was re-branded as Fonz in North America.

SEGA’S HOT NEW
DRIVING GAME

A real wall-smacker of a driving game, designed for the racing buff who loves the feel of the wheel in
his hands while the challenges to his skill comes thick and fast. ROAD RAGE is a single-player thrill machine, with a 23-inch video
screen projecting a constantly changing "S" shaped road course, with two obstacle race cars moving aggressively along the road. Collisions with obstacle cars are accompanied by outstandingly real audio effects.
