When I was very young, my parents had a game called 'wacky races' that was based on a multi-groove vinyl. It was a horse-racing game - I can't recall exactly how the gameplay worked, but the vinyl contained racing calls where the races would start the same way but the outcome would be somewhat random depending on which groove the needle ended up following.


Techmoan has a video on a similar horse racing game (maybe it's even the same just with a different name) and how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5l75romOXY
