The map for ZCT209 made me think of GTA Vice City, which is one of my favourite "driving games" in terms of car feeling. That, the original Carmageddons, and Nitronic Rush. And then I realised I don't think I've ever mentioned the latter.
Nitronic Rush (https://arcade.digipen.edu/games/nitronic-rush) is very arcade-y, highly maddening, and difficult. There is a recent sequel called The Distance (http://www.survivethedistance.com/) which I have not tried, but have a drive on the original!
Thank you for posting this!
I think the basic idea is TrackMania Nations Forever for Nitronic Rush, but anyway, the game looks so futuristic
If my PC can handle it, then i'll try to play with
