I almost forgot about Micronaut One, also by Pete Cooke. There is a bonus race game along with the main game.

I must have spent a surprising ammount on spectrum stuff between 1983 to 93 which is when I last bought a game.

There wasn't any other game on the B-side, except a duplicate copy of Road Race.
