For me Wipeout HD Fury, Burnout Paradise, F1 Race Stars, F1 2012, SBK X, MotoGP 08 and more than likely MotoGP 13 in a few weeks.

Hot pursuit was pretty fun. NFS Most Wanted 2005 is the best, though not this gen.

Burnout Paradise was pretty good. But I have to go with Sonic and SEGA All-Star Racing.

This, if you want arcade games. I'd also have to add Midnight CLub LA, it's brilliant itself but was slightly overshadowed as it came out right around the same time a Burnout Paradise. But yeah Sonic and All Stars Transformed is my favorite arcade Racer this gen.

PGR4, Burnout Paradise, Wipeout HD and Gran Turismo 5. A least, they're the best I've played.

Midnight Club 3 Dub Edition, I played it on PSP and that technically counts as this gen. ;)

Juiced Eliminator is another PSP racer I thought was surprisingly good.

Mario Kart Wii is good I think.

PGR4 is not good for a number of reasons. No racing line so there's a lot of running into walls. And when joining a game online you stare at the menu for 10 minutes waiting for everyone else to finish their race.

Burnout Paradise not good either. The camera is reeally close to the ground. Cheap as shit.

Forza Motorsport 4
Gran Turismo 5
OutRun Online Arcade
Ridge Racer 7
Ridge Racers 2
Sega Rally Online Arcade
Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed
Wipeout HD+Fury

I'm a racing purist. If it's not fully committed to a single branch of the genre, I really can't be bothered. None of these hybrid arcade-sims or console-encumbered arcade racers for me.

PGR4 was one of my favorites.

Forza 4, can't really say much other than it's awesome.

Blur, yes, I said it, Blur.  Bizarre's last game wasn't a bad one.  Might've had some balance issues, but it was still a lot of fun.

That explains why you didn't nominate a Codemasters game. Breaks my heart. :'(
