Forza 6 is the best you're going to get right now, which is still great fun, especially with the addition of night races and rain. The track and car selection could still use a bit of work, but obviously that's subjective.

If you're looking for something with a more arcade feel, then Forza Horizon 3 is your go to without a doubt.

Good luck Joey, have fun.
Hope to catch you on the Nurburgring one day.

get forza motor sports 6 for tracks and cars. Project cars, assetto corsa and dirt rally are all games you should look into. Project cars and assetto have less stuff but are more serious about racing. Dirty rally is a very well received rally game

I was pretty impressed with the sound. There are noticeable differences in the sound of different vehicles, particularly turbo and supercharged versions.
