The first two are still my favorites, but I enjoy all of the Fallout games excepting the squad/tactics games.
This game is great when it isn't causing you to lose due to cheapness either from some sort of physics glitch, opponents who are absolutely ridiculous sometimes, or invisible things that catch your car at the worst time. These things cause me to quit the game immediately and load it up again later only for one of the above issues to cause me to quit after one or two races.
