So using Romlister 0.28 and a MAME .150 -listxml dump, I came up with the following list of "driving" games. I'm not sure how valuable this information is - because I have no idea if they're 360 wheels, 180 wheels, or other random craziness. And it doesn't count Spy Hunter as a driving game - so not sure whats up with that.
I did exclude "light gun" games, so i know there is a least one driving game that had a light gun as part of the control set. Can't remember what its called.
I came up with 168 "games" - clones excluded. I can reproduce this list quickly and with different options, so if you want something else, let me know.
Oh, MAME .150 assumes all these games are playable too. Some of them are crazy old.
