A game where you can race over the most infamous freeway in the Netherlands: the A2. In A2 Racer, you join a band of illegal streetracers whose only goal is to get from A to B as fast as possible. You must weave your way through the regular traffic on the A2, grabbing power-ups like fuel, money and time and making sure the police can't catch you. Be sure to be #1 in this game, for the rest are considered losers.
A2 Racer II again allows you to race on the well known Dutch A-2 highway. But also race tracks have been set out through 3 major Dutch cities: Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Den Haag (the Hague). Like in the original you join illegal street races. There are six stages in the game. The first stage takes place in Amsterdam, the second on the A-2 towards Den Haag, the third in Den Haag itself, the fourth on the road to Rotterdam, the fifth in Rotterdam, and the last from Rotterdam past Utrecht back to Amsterdam. Each city has been carefully recreated in a completely new and improved 3D engine. Racing is made difficult by the police who try to block you by setting up blockades or pushing you off the road. Each time you get caught you get a ticket and lose time. With the third ticket you are out of the race. The game doesn't have a visible damage system, but if you get into too severe a crash you are also out of the race.

Nakajima Satoru F-1 Hero 2 is a 1991 Japan-exclusive Family Computer Formula One video game developed by Human Entertainment and published by Varie. It is the sequel to Nakajima Satoru: F-1 Hero, and is based on the 1991 Formula One season. There are 16 rounds and only four cars to choose from.
This entry in the Ford Racing series sees the racing move onto the streets of Los Angeles, with a unique team racing experience included that puts the player in control of their own Ford Racing three-car team, allowing them to race and also issue commands to team mates to gain tactical and positional advantage. The game showcases 18 fully licensed Ford super cars, from the 1970 Mk1 Capri RS1600, through the Ford GT to the 2007 Shelby GT 500.
Formula 1 Grand Prix (known as World Circuit in the US) is the first installment of Geoff Crammond's Grand Prix series. The game includes all 16 international GP circuits of 1991. Players may drive them in quick race mode, single race or a full championship. The 18 teams and 35 drivers and their performance are based on the 1991 season, but the game doesn't include real names. It is possible to edit and save team and driver names by hand. The extensive tuning feature influences the performance of the car. In-race setup allows players to adjust gear ratios, brake balance, wing downforce and tires during each visit to the pit box. Six optional driving aids help F1 rookies finish their race: players can toggle best line and suggested gear displays to learn track tactics, or have auto brakes, auto gears, self-righting spins and indestructibility to improve their driving. A replay system allows players to watch race scenes from three different views, including track-side camera footage. The game features 3D graphics and various details and effects such as working rear mirrors, collisions with flying debris, crude damage models (wings are visibly bent after crashes), and wet weather that influences traction, including a fog effect that obscures vision when driving in another car's splash water. While the Amiga version allows multiplayer races in hotseat mode, the PC version originally had solo races only. In 1993, the v1.05 update added modem support and a few other improvements.
TOCA World Touring Cars (Called Jarrett & Labonte Stock Car Racing in the USA and WTC: World Touring Car Championship in Japan) is a racing video game developed and published by Codemasters, and released for PlayStation in 2000, and for Game Boy Advance only in Europe in 2003. It is part of the TOCA Touring Car series. It features various Touring Car championships from around the world, but despite carrying the TOCA name, a fully licensed British Touring Car Championship (ToCa) series was not included. This upset a lot of fans of the series, but success continued. The gameplay overall became more "Arcade" and the replacement of qualifying laps with random grid positions together with the omission of penalties for bad driving made the game much more playable for the casual gamer. Curiously, unlike the first two titles in the TOCA series, World Touring Cars was not released in a Microsoft Windows version.
The game features all the circuits that are on the 2009 calendar including the Marina Bay Street Circuit for night racing and the new Yas Marina Circuit. The game only features the 20 drivers that started the 2009 Formula One season, and does not include the driver changes that were made during the season. There are 15 driver aids each switchable on and off for first time and experienced players, and in the multiplayer version, the level of help changes according to the player's skill, by using a "Fair Play" system. The game features slick tyres,[6] as well as the newly-introduced KERS concept, although the game has the feature on all the cars, not just the few that actually used it in the motor racing series. The game offers several different gameplay modes: Quick Race, Time Trial, and a two-player split-screen mode on the Wii.
