RPG Racing Games
In RPGs, or role-playing games, players take the role of a character. Usually these games let the player customise the character in some way, from the name they have to the equipment they use and the choices they make. In recent years, racing games have started to borrow these elements, often letting players take the role of a career race driver who gains experience, fans, equipment or other features as the game progresses.
