Monte Carlo is a 1971 electro-mechanical racing game created by Sega Enterprises, Ltd. Players drive along a black-lit three-lane racing track. When the player has an accident, the car flashes red, sways and a crash sound is heard. A "stand-by" light flashes, holding car score until "Go" light is on. A free game can be won by scoring from 4000 to 8000 miles.

The player's car was animated with holographic-like technology, while the rival cars were standard model cars like other electro-mechanical racing games. During a collision, an animation shows the player's car flipping into the air several times.
