"Racer" anyone ?

[Jon Dixon]

Maybe it's not in the repos due to being technically closed source.
According to the site source is only available to alleviate binary
issues and changes are not recommended but may be submitted for
review, although big changes are apparently not worth it. Sounds a bit
odd.

IMHO, games like this are best served by consoles.
