I remember one where the tires changed colour according to how many laps you did and you could go into pitstop to change them. When they turned red, they were ready to pop.

That's it. And Print shop. I printed many dot-matrix banners on that!

Dot matrix printers! Remember the ones that had to have paper with holes in the side to feed it through - it would be joined together with perforations, and you had to tear off the sides and separate each sheet of paper.
