Racers for Mac?

Is there a good racing game on the mac thats likely to work with a mac mini? Im wanting to try sim style racers with open wheelers or tin tops.

Also is there anyway of using an xbox controller with the mac?

Thanks

Racer is a free driving simulator available for both PC and Mac. I believe NASCAR 2003 was also available for Mac, but I'm not sure how easy it would be to find.

I'm not to sure, but it sounds rather sacrilegious to me.

Not unless you want to recompile the source code.

Luckily Someone has done that for you, click here (it does apparently work with Snow and Leopard, but I haven't used it myself, as I do not own a Mac, but a PC).

Sorry for necrobumping; just wanted to note, for completeness' sake, that nowadays it's possible to run several PC simulators directly on Mac OS X.

Have been using the CrossOver Games V10 'emulator' for this, works fine with GTR2 and rFactor.
Can't run full fields on the Mac mini (2009 version or later), but smaller ones with about 7 AI cars will do ok.

USB input is recognised so one can use a gamepad or a wheel.

How do you get that emulator to work properly so you can run one of those games?
