And by stuff, I mean mobile Racing games. Now, I'm pretty sure everyone here is familiar with usuals like Real Racing 3 and Drag Racing, but I've been looking at a few others that I think are worth sharing. All of the games below are "freemium", that is, you can play for free, but they'll try to suck real money out of you in much the same way Real Racing 3 and Drag Racing already do.
The first one is Table Top Racing, a Mario Kart style racer with, you guessed it, Toy Cars. It's simple, fun and addictive, with a good variety of race modes and toy cars which, while not licensed, are easy to recognize. There's a Kombi. There's a Bug. There's a BMW 2002 in proper racing colors.
Drag Racing Bike Edition was obviously made by Creative Mobile, the same people behind Drag Racing, but it has a distinct style of its own, familiar, but fresh. It's lots of fun if you want a little variation, but the bikes aren't licensed, even though they resemble real models. There's also a Drag Racing 4x4, but that one's kind of the same as the car edition.
The last one, CSR is a 3D drag racing game that plays very much like Creative Mobile's Drag Racing, but with a nice twist: it comes in two versions, CSR Racing, with modern cars and parts, and CSR Classics, the game that actually motivated this whole post. Set in the 70's and featuring not only the obligatory Muscle Car brigade, but classic european and japanese cars as well, CSR Classics also lets you buy "unloved" classics and restore/modify them to their former glory and individually tune parts, coming across as a mobile version of Street Rod and Street Rod 2. I highly recommend these!

Getting CSR Classics now. Hopefully it's as good as you make it sound!

Well, it's not the be all end all of mobile racing games, but for what it is, it is pretty fun. Car selection is great all around, hoarding the paid money is easier than than other freemiums and, even though you can't tune gear ratios like in DR, at least you won't come across a billion guys all running the same car and setup just to stay ahead. You might also want to try out Nitro Nation, a "super Drag Racing 3D" of sorts, with lots of tuning options but not so great functionality yet. It's a bit overdone for a mobile game IMO, but it's worth trying out
