Arcade Racing Games
Arcade racing is the shortest route from opening a page to enjoying it. Nothing in this section needs a tutorial, a garage or a career — you press a key and the game starts. Thirty-six games are listed, and they are the ones we would recommend for a five-minute break rather than an evening.
Endless runners make up a large part of it. Tunnel Road, Rage-free lane games and the various distance-scored highway runs all work the same way: the speed rises, the obstacles arrive faster, and the run ends when your reactions stop keeping up. There is no failure state more complicated than that, which is precisely the appeal.

Quick races form the rest. Extreme Toy Race, Race It: Car Racing and similar games drop you straight into a short event against a rival with no setup at all. Runs last a minute or two, and a rematch is always cheaper than an argument about the last one.
Several games appear in this section as well as a more specific one, because a game can be both an arcade racer and a rally game. Where that happens, the more specific section is the better place to browse if you know what you are looking for, and this one is the better place to start if you do not.
A few older pages from this site's earlier catalogue are also kept here, including two derby games that are not driving games at all. They are listed plainly rather than hidden, because their addresses have existed for years and breaking them would serve nobody.
Everything here runs in the browser and most of it works well on a phone, since arcade games tend to use two or three inputs at most.
This section works as a starting point for the rest of the site. If a game here turns out to be the kind of thing you want more of, the branch sections — rally, drift, truck, traffic, parking and the rest — hold the deeper versions of the same idea. Arcade racing is where most people find out which of those branches they actually like, and none of it takes longer than a few minutes to try.
Questions about this section
What counts as an arcade racing game?
Anything you can start and enjoy immediately — no setup, no garage, no career, and usually two or three controls.
Why do some games appear in two sections?
A game can genuinely be both an arcade racer and, say, a rally game. Where that is true it is listed in both.
Are the derby games here driving games?
No. Two older derby pages are kept in this section because their addresses have existed for years, and they are labelled plainly.
