Yeah, I think I prefer EvoG's categories, simply because I enjoy most basic 'types' of racer but only if they follow a certain arcadey style. I can't be arsed with tuning and braking for corners and all that bollocks - it's one of the reasons that I don't think the first FlatOut game worked, because it felt too serious considering its premise. Give me ridiculous powerslides and insane maneuvers any day.

As I said though, the games I enjoy span most of the main 'types' of racer. Somewhere near the top of the list are Burnout 2 (with an emphasis on racing), Burnout 3 (emphasis on crashing and generally being EXTREME), Outrun 2 (a fantastic arcade conversion for the Xbox), F-Zero GX (very skilful hovercar action) and Project Gotham (rather more technical arcade stuff).
