Dragster is a 1980 racing video game for the Atari Video Computer System. It was designed by David Crane and is one of the first video games released by Activision.
The objective of the game is to either beat the player's opponent across the screen or to race against the clock for best time, depending on the settings used. Crane was the designer of Dragster, describing it as a homage to the 1977 Kee Games arcade game Drag Race (1977).
