Formula 1 cars and Trakcs into TORCS (the best open source (free) car racing simulator game).
TORCS (The Open Racing Car Simulator) is the best game to edit and modify that exists.
We can modify every thing: cars, tracks, phisics of the cars (engine, suspensions, gears,...) in few minutes. I mean, you can make a good track with the trackeditor (that is provided wiht torcs, and very easy to use) in 15 minutes.
For example to edit a car we can use and open-source (and free, of course) 3D design program: blender to edit the carshape. And The GIMP to edit the textures.

So we can edit all with open-source programs.

Another important thing is that TORCS have a version for Windows and for linux, so everybody can install it on their compurer.
   
The next image shows my first track that I made with track editor in a few minutes (about 15):

Moreover you can see how to make a real track. For example is explained how to build the Formula 1 Grand Prix Track (Barcelona, Montmeló, Circuit de Catalunya).
