Overpopulation dystopia where people are given pills to keep them under control and food comes in pills. People could live long lives and were fed, clothed, housed, and ensured of regular sex but only a few were permitted to have children. In the annual race people self-selected to race in cars over a course on which gates would spring up and, if they hit one, they died in the wreck. Only one man had ever survived, and his reward was the best of everything.
