'--help' should just give a list of command line options and not
clutter up valuable screen space in a terminal with track names or
other data (there are after all just 24 lines per default).

In the long run tracks should all go into their own directory, so a
--track option should just act on the filename or directory name. So
currently it should be like:

./tuxkart --track data/geekopeak.loc

or even better just:

./tuxkart data/geekopeak.loc

Anyway, the whole command line options are mainly meant for debugging
to surpass the in-game GUI, so changing them later to something else
is really a not an issue.
