Car Wars is a video game for the TI-99/4A programmed by Jim Dramis and published by TI in 1981.

[2] The player controls a car starting at the bottom of the screen and navigates it through an open grid full of dots.

When a level is cleared, a new car is added to the pit, and bonus points are scored.

When the game starts, the player's red car and the computer's yellow car face off back-to-back at the bottom of the screen (6:00 position), and start off moving in the opposite direction.

The player has the ability to speed up at any time by pressing the joystick button.

The object is to clear all 180 dots from the board, which will result in bonus points, a new car being added to the pit (unless full), and advancement to the next level.

Prior to the game, the player can select playing options from a menu.
