Sim, arcade, simcade, anything. I'm kinda disconnected from the genre and want to know what is considered the GOATs of racing games to try them out.

Me personally, I'd say Dirt Rally 2, very addicting gameplay.

Old Gran Turismo, Wreckfest, and Rollcage are mine.

Nobody is calling either game GOATs, but I personally really like Sonic Riders Zero Gravity and Cartoon Network Racing.

FlatOut: Ultimate Carnage was a real banger that I played the shit out of

I spent a lot of time on forza 6 and a lot on money on iracing. but eventually stopped racing. It is not fun any more and there is no respect in online racing. Just people wrecking each other

I am really surprised nobody mentioned yet

CarX Drift Racing Online

Best drifting game ever. A lot of customization, visual and performance of cars.

Distance

it's highly replayable esp because of Steam Workshop modding support, it's got excellent singleplayer campaigns, fun online multiplayer racing with friends and arcade modes, soundtracks that really gets the blood 🤌P U M P I N G🤌🔥

also works on Linux with no issues✨


Here's also the 1.3 Electric Boogaloo Update

and 1.5 Kinetic Update🤗

While not exactly a traditional racing game, I always loved the Stuntman series.

Recently discovered Night Runners (free demo on steam if you are interested). The soundtrack is a blast and it is very fun. Very hyped for the official release :)

What was that older one now, with the biggest game map in the world at the time? I think dirt.

Very beautiful atmospheric game with a lonely feel but fun driving

Rush 2, but just the stunts track

I really wanted to try Forza Horizon but the closest game like it I could get my hands on was NFS Heat, which I had a lot fun playing. Riders Republic was also fun if you want a non car racing game. I guess I'm just into open world racing.

I think they still have issues at the emulation so many maybe haven't had the chance but Project Gotham racing as a series is great. If youve liked modern GRIDs I highly suggest them.

My go to would be Burnout3, revenge, or dominator.

More modern probably Forza horizon but the formula is running a bit long for me.

Any Black Box made Need for Speed.

(Currently busy fixing Pro Street, so many bugs...)
