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.
Need For Speed - Underground 2
I love this game. The soundtrack and atmosphere are perfect
probably Distance
Burnout 3
What was the name of that motorcycle racing game where you also beat up other racers all while racing to Soundgarden… That one.
Road Rash?
Yes thats it. I gotta go find that disk somewhere in my old folders now
Gran Turismo - the first one
And Two honestly.
Midnight Club 3
Initial D and Tokyo Xtreme Racer series.
Rock n’ Roll Racing.
Really basic, but Mario Kart DS specifically. The gameplay does not do it for me, but the way it sounds coming out of the DS’s Speakers sounds amazing. Though, Mario Kart 64 & Wii are probably really close for me out of sheer nostalgia.
Rocket Leagues first OST. The following seasons had some good stuff as well, but man, 2015s Rocket League featured a string of bangers!
Nightmare Kart

Do-do-do-do-do-do-Daytooooooooooooooonaaaaaaaaa!
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.
Lotus Esprit Turbo Challenge and Project Gotham Racing.
