''Super Sprint'' (known as ''Sprint Master'' on the Atari 2600) is a racing video game released by Atari Games and Midway Games in 1986. Up to three players drive Formula One-like cars on a circuit that is viewed from above. The game is a successor to '' Gran Trak 10'' and the '' Sprint'' series, which were black-and-white games from the 1970s. A sequel, ''Championship Sprint'', was released later in the same year.
