For me: the Out Run OST. Everyone listens to and praises Nintendo OSTs or Square Enix, but Out Run is something else. I have rarely listened to video game music that catchy.

Midnight Club 3
Gran Turismo - the first one
Rock n’ Roll Racing.
While not a racing game in the traditional sense, the soundtrack for I Am Your Beast is what cocaine sounds like. Listen to Negative Time without vibing, I bet you can’t.
Flatout: Ultimate Carnage or Need For Speed: Underground
Yep Underground
My shortlist is probably WipEout Pulse (I love how that entire series feels like a game made out of electronic music, the same way Doom is made out of metal), WipEout 2048 (for the same reason, but I played it even more), Forza Motorsport 2 (cuz it had a huge influence on my taste at a very young age), and then maybe Gran Turismo 5?
I don’t even like that genre of music much, but it is so perfect for Wipeout and the selection is excellent
F-Zero GX, hands down. Nothing else is even close.
Hell yeah, F-Zero.
Lotus Esprit Turbo Challenge and Project Gotham Racing.
Ridge Racer Type 4 isn’t here?
Boo.
in the following order:
Moto Racer 2 soundtrack, my favorite ska punk “album”
og wipeout
ez
NFS underground or most wanted.
I wouldn’t call them my favourites, but I will call them a perfect fit. The licensed soundtrack in MW has exactly the correct feel for the game.
That’s why I think they’re great. Good standalone songs put in a fitting context.
Bought and played NFS heat recently. Game was surprisingly good, music, however had too much hip-hop/pop and stuff like that for my taste so that was disappointing.
Prostreet too
I also like NFS Carbon to be honest.
Never played it, but it has kyuss. That alone makes it great. The rest are a bonus.
MX Vs. ATV Unleashed
Something about the early 2000s alt and buttrock that just does it for me.
