The Tokyo Extreme games are good, as are most of the futuristic titles (Rush 2049, POD Speedzone, etc.). Flag to Flag is an evolution of the Virtua Racing series in many ways, Monaco Grand Prix is a decent F1 game, and all in all there are a lot of racing games to choose from on the Dreamcast.

That said, none of them feature that Ridge Racer like drifting...you might be out of luck.

I think it's really funny that you'd let that game stop you from a full US set considering it's like a $5 game though.
Ain't the only game that holds me back from completing a US library. The Ring, Test Drive 6, Spirit of Speed, Soldier of Fortune, ESPN NBA 2Night and Track N Field, ECW Hardcore Rev... No thanks :lol:
Besides, I rather spend that money on Dreamcast import releases of games that never came out here.
As far as the Dreamcast's racing library goes, I can't comment too much. I have Roadsters, Test Drive 6, Sega Rally 2, Sega GT, and Flag to Flag... pretty small collection considering all the ones available
Yes. You've barely begun to scratch the surface. TXR series, MSR, LeMans, Hydro, Mag Force, Demolition Racer, Re-volt, LT Space race are just some of my favorites.

:cry: :cry: :cry: If only SCUD Race was actually released :cry: :cry: :cry:

Racing games are one thing the Dreamcast did REALLY Well but some are better than others that's for sure.

Probably not his fault, but I blame Bernie Stolar anyway. It's his Fault.

Touge: King the Spirits 2 on the Saturn is actually pretty decent. It is a mountain racer game, but it has a focus on drifting. Better looking than most people expect a Saturn racer to be given Sega didn't make it.

I also have a copy for trade *hint, hint*
