TORCS, The Open Racing Car Simulator, is it really one of the best open source racing simulators? Just by looking at some of the screenshots I am already fairly impressed.
Torcs Main Features
According to Torcs,"TORCS features more than 50 different cars, more than 20 tracks, and 50 opponents to race against. Your can steer with a joystick or steering wheel, if the device is supported by your platform. It is also possible to drive with the mouse or the keyboard. Graphic features lighting, smoke, skidmarks and glowing brake disks. The simulation features a simple damage model, collisions, tire and wheel properties (springs, dampers, stiffness, ...), aerodynamics (ground effect, spoilers, ...) and much more. The gameplay allows different types of races from the simple practice session up to the championship. Enjoy racing against your friends in the split screen mode with up to four human players."
Currently there aren't too many open source racing seems out there, but Torcs is a great addition to the meager lineup.
