One of the old games I found laying around in my dad's box of computer crap as a kid in the early 2000s when I didn't really have access to "real" games. Favorite part of the game was seeing iconic locations from around the world represented in distinct, cruddy late 90s 3D. That, and getting sick air in San Fransisco.
This was one of my first racing games I grew up with as a kid. As others have said, I enjoyed the iconic locations, traffic, police, and the car selection (the Shelby Cobra was my favorite).
It was my first race game on our first pc and I played it untill I unlocked all the cars. I played it for hours and now I want to do that again! Bring Test Drive 5 back to life

Rally Trophy
Rally TrophyIn the game, the player is taken through 42 highly detailed stages in five countries - Russia, Sweden, Finland, Switzerland and Kenya - which cover several road surfaces including gravel, mud and tarmac. Stages take place in all weather conditions such as rain in both the day and night. Damage is accurately re-created, even down to broken headlights which the player must of course preserve to see during night stages. Rally Trophy was considered by many people to be the Grand Prix Legends of rally driving, due to its focus on historic cars, and the physics models of the cars (with no traction control or driver aids) being relatively realistic and challenging for its time.

Grand Prix 2
Grand Prix 2All the circuits and drivers of the 1994 Formula 1 World Championship is recreated in Geoff Crammond's second racing simulation. The game is viewed from within the cockpit - external views are provided primarily for use in replays or demonstrations. Texture mapping and full detail in the rear view mirrors are available for almost every visible feature. The game has 5 skill levels, 7 driving aids such as automatic brakes and a dotted 'ideal racing line' to follow available on lower skill levels, and variable race and practice session lengths. You will have to alter the car's setup to get the best possible car performance - this ranges from standard features such as brake balance and gear ratios onto more technical ones such as spring settings and the ride height. Multiplayer games involve either taking it in turns on a single computer, or on a linkup.
