Trying to find/identify a game.

Now I know what I thought it was called (Black Tower) but I can't find it in the database so I'm willing to believe I just remember wrongly.
This was a rails type of game where you were "racing" in basically a straight line in your craft across a dark valley floor towards a tall black tower which needed to be destroyed. It was presented in a rear view pseudo perspective style (think Outrun or Pole Position). On your way there you could shoot enemies in your way, pass over different colored squares that would speed you up or slow you down.
The limited control you had pretty much just changed where on the screen you were - the actual tower (barely visible in the distance, but it got closer) didn't move, and the scenery didn't really change perspective, though the ground graphics did.
Eventually when you got to the "end" you were to shoot at the tower and it came crashing down.
What on earth is this game? It's eating me up inside being unable to find it.
Help me Atarimania! You're my only hope!
