Any really good racing games for PS2 besides the GT and NFS series?

Doesn't have to be new, games like Driver works too... Just wanted to get in the know about possibly rare and underrated car games out there!

Three games i have in front of me that i think are pretty good are:

R: Racing Evolution. Made by Namco. U start out a Girl ambulance driver who works her way up thru the ranks. Pretty good, easy to pick up the way the car handles and stuff.

Total Immersion Racing. Good game, awesome cars, but the handling is wierd. Same type of deal as the previous game, work your way up thru the ranks.

V Rally 3. I think there newer versions, but i have the 3rd one. Its a rally game (duh) and same as the last 2...work your way up.

edit: Oh yea...and from what i hear, Toca Race Driver 2 is awesome.

thanks Tedd, I'll be looking for those tomorrow when I hit the local game shops.

btw, what do you think of the MidnightClub series? I've played NFS:U1&2, but thought there wasn't too much choice on cars, so how does MC comapre to NFS:U ?

I got some deal on PS2 where u buy a game, 20 bux or more and get PS2 for 150.

Newayz, i bought MC1. Hated it. Didnt like the game at all.

Played NFSU 1 and 2...liked the second one better.

Im more a fan of the ACTUAL racing games like the GT series (i guess thats y i have 1 thru 4) and the ones i mentioned before.

And if your into motorcycles, check out MotoGP2. Pretty good game.

cool dude!

isn't there a game called bmx xxx where there is supposed to be some surprise when you complete it?

Yea...i have that game.

I am (or used to be) big into bmx and i dont really like the game. It has a bunch of stupid missions you have to complete in each level that are kinda stupid.

The game does apparently have some "goodies" in it tho.

But if your up for a challenge...go for it.

I thought mc2(midnight club 2) was pretty good, i would choose it over the first nfs underground, but nfsu2 was better than mc2 IMO.

I got bored playing NFSU2 online about a month or so ago(PC) and me and a few racing buddies were messing around with the Toca 2 demo. There's both an online and offline version and if you have a PC with a good video card and broadband(big download) you could check it out.

Its much more of a sim than the Underground series, but is pretty easy(avoid pro mode at first) once you get your brake points down, and a lot of fun multiplayer. I don't know about for the PS2 but the PC version is scarcer than hen's teeth and requires a DVD drive.
