Is there any racing anime out there similar to Initial D?

Something that has the same quality and detail for cars and racing on general.

Thanks for the recommendations!

Might add Capeta as well since you added Overtake!.

I kinda decided to skip anything too old that would possibly be really hard to find anywhere online for legal streaming, but yeah, could also add other old anime like:

* Shin Seiki GPX Cyber Formula

* F ([INFO LINK](https://anidb.net/anime/3208))

* Baribari Densetsu

* Futaridaka

* Yoroshiku Mecha Doc

I think auto racing itself is quite an uncommon genre even in manga. Sure, there could be dozens but that is small compared to the four-digits or higher of Japanese manga out there.

MF Ghost. Literally sequel to Initial D

One that didn't get mentioned with a bit more sci-fi official racing flair is Future GPX Cyber Formula, which is quite good with some really strong OVA sequels.
