I loved how it subtly got more and more difficult, and I was often playing it long after the race was loaded.

Heh, I did the same.

That game still stands as one of my all time favorite games, and my second favorite racing game (Star Wars Episode I Racer is the best racing game ever created).

A huge part of that was definitely that it hit at the right time in my life. I was 12 or 13 or so. The "story" and dialogue were cheesy in a great way, the driving was fun, the courses were fun, and the OG Xbox's ability to use custom music all culminated to make for a great experience. Anytime I hear an Eagles song, the first thing that comes to mind is driving a classic Mustang over the Golden Gate Bridge in that game.
