Nope, I remember the game as well, but I can't remember the name. You
could race from LA to NY, Seattle to NY, NY to Miami, etc, or you could race
through every city in the US. If I remember you had to stop for gas during
some of the stages, and it had different types of weather (rain, snow) and
traffic (night, rush hour) as well. This game has got to be 15 yrs old at
least.

There is a C64 emulator for the PC, with a lot of games, including
Outrun, Monaco Grand Prix, and who knows, the game you are looking
for...
