MotoRace USA (also known as Traverse USA, in Japan as Zippy Race, and in Spain as Mototour) is a 1983 racing video game developed and published by Irem for Japanese arcades; it was released in North America by Williams Electronics and in Europe by Comercial Electronica. Cabinet art was done by Larry Day and Bruce Schafernak of Advertising Posters in Chicago. The player controls a racer who must travel on a motorcycle from Los Angeles to New York City. The game was ported to the SG-1000 home console by Sega in March 1984, and the Family Computer in 1985. An updated version of the game was announced for the Intellivision Amico, but never released.
