And a few no-name racing games that I probably have lying around somewhere (including a V8 Supercars game made by DICE

Got my Playstation 2 for Xmas '04:

Way to many to remember. I've been playing racing games since the commodore 64.

I would say my favorites have been

Turbo grafix 16
final lap

commodore 64
pit stop 1 and 2

nintendo
days of thunder


PS2
Toca race driver
GT4

PS3
ferrari challenge

PC
Iracing

sega
rc pro am

Xbox
Forza

Xbox 360
Forza 3

I can't really remember any dreamcast, saturn, 3DO, PS1, or Jaguar racing games that I thought were worth mentioning. The only reason GT4 made the list was because I had 4 or 5 friends that I raced with like crazy with LAN at the house, and a few guys I raced online with. GT has always just had such a boring single player I always needed friends to race with to enjoy the game.
