Racing

Racing games include simulators of circuit racing, rally, derby, bike and motorcycle simulators, etc. Most often, players race in sports cars, but there are also exotic representatives of the genre, such as bus and tractor racing. There is a huge variety of such projects, from fully realistic simulators like Forza Motorsport and Gran Turismo Sport to the simplest arcades (Need for Speed series, Flatout series, Sonic & All-Stars Racing, Wreckfest). There are games in this genre that use weapons and bonuses.
