R. C. Pro-Am was a video game developed by Rare and released for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1988. It is a racing game involving remote control cars and thus utilizes an out of vehicle perspective.
It is also one of the first racing games to incorporate the use of weapons to temporarily disable competitors. Missiles, bombs, and a roll cage that makes the player invincible are used to literally blow away the competition.
Also on every course was a letter that the player could collect. If the letter is collected on each track, every eight tracks the letters spell out "Nintendo"; accomplishing this would upgrade the RC Cars to faster, more nimble models. A sequel Super R.C. Pro-Am was released for the Gameboy on Jan 1, 1991.
