Hey Ive been checking out some really cool things that are to come in racing games soon.NASCAR '05 will be out in fall, this game will have something ive been looking for in a race game for a while.  you can move from dirtcar modified, to the truck series, to the busch series, and then to nextel cup.  I am not so much interested in this specific game as much as the other implications it will have on other games like F-1.  Start in Karting, to F-3000, to F-1.  This would be excellent, because it takes me so long to memorize all the corners in F-1, so a transition from slowGP cars to fast would help.

if you guys want a good race game try TOCA 2 (i know they have it for XBOX i am not sure about the othere systems)

they have every form of racing (ice racing, rallying, vintage racing, forumla 1, formula ford, nascar, trucks, 18 wheeler racing, the list goes on)

Trust me, 18 Wheeler racing ain't fun.

For fun, may I suggest Colin McRae Rally 4 (Definately not Version 3 though!) its an absolute blast!

Try Rally Trophy 1960s cars with crash damage that affects performance. Then try their web site for newer cars, awsome!!

Out for PC since 1999,so the graphics aren't that good anymore.
I recommend STCC2. It's simply TOCA with swedish tracks and nicer cars,such as Alfa 156s, Honda Accords, BMW 3 series, Volvos and even Pontiac Firebirds.

Other very good racing games:
-Grand Prix 4
-Nascar 2003
-Live for Speed
-Rally Trophy

Gran turismo 4 will absolutly blow away the competition like all which have come before it.  Theres a pre release avaliable but from what i have heard its best to just wait as this isnt much better than 3. Been a long wait but well worth it i have a feeling.

I have GT2 for playstation-its pretty sweet but outdated.  I refused to buy GT3 (due to the lack of classic cars) and am currently awaiting the release of GT4 (its gonna have classic cars!!!)
