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.
Every racing game not trying to sim stupid cars is gold these days.
I really enjoyed some Xbox game called "quantum redshift" and I've been trying to capture that feeling ever since. VR game called Redoubt gets close.

I don't typically go for racing games, but I have fond memories of playing Extreme-G on the N64. It had wepons, high speeds, and a soundtrack that tricked a young me into thinking I might like techno music.
I don't know if it counts, but for me it's Distance
GT3 had the right amount of advanced and customization without going overboard or being too realistic. It was my sweet spot.
Any AG racing fans in here?
BalisticNG is my latest main game, but my love began with the WipEout series.
I also enjoy Redout and Redout 2, but the lack of weapons means I can only go so long before needing to play WipEout or BNG again.
Obligatory mention of !ballisticng@sopuli.xyz
Major fan hear. BallisticNG is such a love letter to WipEout, its fantastic
Redout 1 and 2 are great fun if I'm in the mood for lap times, but I hate racing against the NPCs.
Rumble Racing enjoyer
I generally hate racing games. The one I do remember playing a lot was 1990's Stunts. It was an early polygonal game. You could make your own tracks. It's was pretty ahead of its time.
Old Gran Turismo, Wreckfest, and Rollcage are mine.
