Years ago I used to love playing Screamer 2 and Screamer Rally. Hammering around circuits without having to go to a garage and get upgrades and all that malarkey. Are there any games nowadays that aren't monetised to the hilt and don't require the cars to be upgraded? I just want to belt around a realistic circuit or course in a 'real' car, against other ai cars (i.e. not necessarily against other gamers over the web) and continuously if possible.

Can anyone tell me either a windows or android racing game that fits the bill, or don't those sort of arcade racing games exist any more?

Within the hardware there's game suggestions. I'm out the loop but:

Road Racing: Assetto Corsa / iRacing / rFactor / maybe GT7

Rallying: Dirt 2.0, maybe the latest one too.

Richard Burns Rally (RBR) is still the GOAT of rally sims and can be downloaded for free these days with a whole truckload of mods, from rallysimfans.hu

Dirt Rally 2 has much better graphics and sound as you would expect from a newer game, but for realism and driving satisfaction it still can't compete with RBR.

I'm currently playing Rush Rally Origins, simple but really addictive with a lovely handling model. There is also Art of Rally, whose aesthetics I loved but could never quite get to grips with the mechanics of.
