Road Race[a] is a 1976 car driving arcade racing video game developed and released by Sega in February 1976.[8][9][2] Later the same year, Sega released two motorbike racing variants, Man T.T.[b] (released in August)[10][2] and Moto-Cross,[5] which were in turn re-branded as Fonz,[10] in November 1976. The game was based on the character Fonzie (portrayed by Henry Winkler) from the 1970s TV show Happy Days, with the slogan being "TV's hottest name, Your hottest game". Sega licensed Fonz because at the time it was owned by Charles Bluhdorn's Gulf+Western Company and it was a Paramount Television intellectual property.
A two-player version of Man T.T. called Twin Course T.T.[c] was released in January 1977.[7]
