Just wanted to make a recommendation. This is a pretty bare Bones arcade style racer. It's a simple game and it's pretty fun in my opinion. The first one's okay too. I prefer the Switch version to the mobile. It also has a pretty good selection of cars.

Gonna hijack this to gush about OutRunners. It's the last official "2D" entry in the series. The description in this video calls it the limit of what you can do with sprite scaling and I'm inclined to agree. Some of the pseudo-3D effects ore really convincing:

It also has a course layout a little more advanced than a basic triangle (TWO triangles, and they meet on the opposite side of the globe). My favorite thing is that you can see the DNA of OutRun 2/2SP in a lot of these stages. Just in the first course shown, you pass through San Francisco, Easter Island and Egypt, which are all location revisited in 2/2SP.

OutRunners is a really underrated entry in the series IMO.
 
Spec Racing is fun but I almost wish it had no clip on permanently. Since everyone has rhe exact same car the pack stays close long enough someome is bound to smash you out of the way of a gate and then you're completely fucked.

But when people aren't being assholes online has been great. The elevation/roads/etc all make for fun tracks vs the flat openness of Mexico.

I can definitely see myself fucking about online a lot, its like Mario Kart tier brain off and race.
