In Real Life, the racing of any kind of vehicle is very dangerous, and many people have died or suffered serious injury while doing so. Things have gotten better, but it is still a potentially deadly sport truly only kept in the reins of safety by the skill of the drivers. However, there is also the fact that in real life, except for off-road rallies and endurance races, most races simply involve going from point A to point B, or driving in an oval for a few dozen or a few hundred laps. Because of this, writers tend to spice things up a bit. The result is a Wacky Race, a race so improbable, so outrageous, so dangerous, that it makes Pikes Peak look like a trip to the grocery.
The race often has rules more akin to a Demolition Derby than a normal race (if there are any rules at all), and often takes place on an improbable course. Courses built around entire cities, courses with rollercoaster-like architecture, courses floating in midair, courses existing only in an alternate racing dimension, and courses in locations where it's generally not safe to be standing, let alone racing, are common. In addition, the vehicles themselves are often specialized. If they're cars, expect them to have weapons and other modifications.
If they're go-karts, expect a lot of Power Ups to be littering the course—if not, plain old Car Fu will be highly encouraged. And if they aren't normal vehicles, expect them to be some amazing sci-fi vehicle capable of pretty much defying the laws of physics. The Vehicles are often themed after their drivers (who are just as wacky as the race itself). The Rules of the Road may be altered arbitrarily. And of course, expect the prize to be some sort of MacGuffin.
It's almost traditional for a set of characters in a non-racing series to have an episode or spinoff where they engage in this. The hero usually wins, (or a random side character) the Ensemble Dark Horse always gets the coolest car, and the villain cheats and has it backfire hilariously. And, of course, someone always Drives Like Crazy.
Most Mascot Racer games involve this.
Also see Unconventional Vehicle Chase, Vehicular Combat, Chariot Race, Fictional Sport, Pseudolympics, "No Rules" Racing. May involve an Epic Race.

WipEout: High-tech hovercraft zoom round vastly improbable tracks (including ones suspended from a city's skyscrapers) at supersonic speeds while blasting each other with various types of missile, and the Quake Disruptor, a weapon that causes the entire track to undulate in an excessive manner, slamming itself into opponent's craft, causing massive damage.

Red Line has a number of outrageous characters (bounty hunters, space police, magical girls) in vehicles with weapons and gadgets (one vehicle is amphibious). The main race takes place on a planet ruled by cyborgs who aren't too keen on the race taking place there, so the racers have to fight with them as well as each other.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie takes the wacky racing Mario Kart is known for and makes it the hat of the Jungle Kingdom; the Kongs use their karts quite dangerously in the most mundane ways, with a Kong driver throwing a Banana Peel onto the ground with no concern for the next Kong who slips over it and gets flung into a building, causing the kart to explode. A later scene in the film where the Koopas attack with karts of their own brings some power-ups from Mario Kart with it; besides the banana peels, there are also Bob-Ombs and cannons that shoot Koopa shells. The boss of the Koopas present ends the sequence by turning into a Spiny Shell and destroying Mario and Donkey Kong’s kart at the cost of his life.

The 2000 Digimon short Digimon Adventure 3D: Digimon Grandprix has the partner Digimon from the first two series and PicoDevimon racing in flying vehicles that are in some way themed after themselves or their human partners. It goes off the rails right away thanks to Agumon's rocket going out of control and Veemon and PicoDevimon's constant fighting.

The Need for Speed is no slouch either: You can have stock sports cars from Japan, Europe, and America battling each other on the highways. Subsequent games like Need for Speed II and III: Hot Pursuit up the ante by having varieties of European and American supercars beating each other up, with Hammerspace Police Force launching Hot Pursuit turning the races into Blood Sport since the latter.

Kinetica. The racers wear their vehicles, with the wheels attached to the ends of their arms and legs, and they race on the walls and/or ceilings of large skyscrapers. And more than half the racers are hot chicks whose "vehicles" show lots of skin, and that the game is Nintendo Hard.

Excite Truck. Feels like a G-rated Carmageddon crossed with Monster Truck Madness. Lots of nitro and ludicrous jumps contribute to the over-the-top feel.
How about Excite Bots, which is like Truck, except with vehicles styled after animals and minigames in the middle of the races.

Curfew takes place in a dystopian England (and Scotland) both run by a totalitarian government and overrun with mutant monsters. The race featured within turns a blind eye to physical conflict between teams but doesn't enforce it either. It also takes place at night when the monsters are active. The list of vehicles involved note  ambulance, Volvo wagon, Volkswagen van, etc. looks more at home in Twisted Metal than Gran Turismo. One character even refers to the event as the Wacky Races.

Looney Tunes:
Porky's Road Race (1936) has Porky and a bunch of No Celebrities Were Harmed characters in an auto race, with "Borax Kar-Off" as the Dick Dastardly figure.
Also from Looney Tunes is Hippydrome Tiger (1968), where Cool Cat partakes in a cross-country road race in Paris, and his nemesis Colonel Rimfire and his mechanical elephant pursue him throughout the race.
Bunny and Claude from 1968, while not actually an auto race, has this type of feel as the redneck Sheriff pursues carrot thieves Bunny and Claude through the countryside. The fact that it feels somewhat like a Hanna-Barbera cartoon at times helps add to the resemblance to Wacky Races.

Sugar Rush from Wreck-It Ralph is one big candy-coated Expy of Mario Kart. In addition to the literal Sugar Bowl setting, the racers seemingly have special abilities and are allowed to attack each other on the course. The game also has a character roster that's seemingly chosen randomly. It's actually decided by a race held when the game's not being played.

The races in Driver: San Francisco would be perfectly ordinary open-world street racing if not for Tanner's ability to shift into other cars. If you can't catch up to someone, nothing's stopping you from shifting into a car further down the road and driving headlong into your opponent. Several races even require you to shift between two cars mid-race and get first and second place simultaneously. In a bit of playing with a trope, the same applies to police chases; whether you're the chaser or the chasee, things get complicated really fast once you can hijack any car on the road instantaneously.

Supermarioglitchy4's Super Mario 64 Bloopers:
"Retarded 64: Retard karts 101" note  later renamed "Idiot Karts 101" has Mario open a driving school. When none of the students show much skill, he decides to hold a race to determine the best driver. The race quickly descends into chaos with the racers using various weapons against each other and running each other off the road. Only one driver crosses the finish line.
"Stupid Mario Kart" starts off with a race with the drivers resorting to the usual weapons and attacks. However, the drivers are so incompetent that they have to try Mario Kart's other game modes to determine a winner.

Anpanman has had a couple of racing episodes (one was a half-hour episode, the other a theatrical short). Some vehicles were go-karts (by most of the racers, even the superheroes. Baikinman dressed as a mysterious racer in both episodes until his cover was blown), a few had bike pedal-powered cars (Creampanda, but he's a kid, so he can't drive. The Donburiman Trio, on the other hand, had Tendonman winning a bet, so the car gets to look like him, and he doesn't have to control it, while Katsudonman and Kamameshidon are forced under the kart controlling it), and even steeds (the cowboys using their horses/grasshopper (in Arinkokiddo's case)). Both times involved Baikinman using Dokinchan (and Horrorman at one point) to help rig the race.

In the Discworld book Going Postal Moist organizes a race between the Post Office and the clacks to deliver a message to Genua. He wins by cheating and replacing the message that the clacks sent with one outlining the crimes that the owners had committed.

Final Fantasy XIV: In the Endwalker Allied Tribe Quests, the Hippo Riders, the Dreaming Ways, and the Last Dregs all collaborate to host the "Hyper Hustle", a big race between the groups at the edge of the universe. The only rules are that everyone must stay within the course and fly through the checkpoint rings around the course. All other means of magical or technological mischief are legal. The race is further complicated by the presence of artillery along the course and the other denizens of Ultima Thule joining in with their vehicles.

NASCAR Racers, set in a future where NASCAR has evolved into a Speed Racer style event around grotesque dangerous tracks. Ironically, though, it's actually safer than real NASCAR, since all the vehicles have "rescue racers", an escape pod jettisoned in the event of a crash.

In a sense, It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. The film depicts a group of strangers who hear the dying words of a man who tells them about a large amount of money buried under a giant "W". These strangers then race to the giant W to be the first to find the money and claim it for themselves. The people use cars, trucks, airplanes, and even bicycles to reach their goal.

"Johnny Kart Racing" in Johnny Test centers around this. Notably, the episode starts off as a normal soapbox car race between Johnny and Dukey, snowballs into this trope as more and more racers enter, and the soapboxes are swapped for real cars. Also noteworthy is that a lampshade is hung on Dick Dastardly Stops to Cheat.
Actually, this show seemed to love this trope. There's at least five episodes that use this trope.

Freaky Flyers is what happens when you combine a Kart Racer with an aerial combat simulator. A group of wacky characters (bookworm with a violent alter ego, mimes, a robot) take part in a series of races through caricatures of various locales (Canada, Chicago, Arabia). One way to advance is to shoot down the opponents ahead of you. There are also side quests to handle during races and power-ups to collect.

Disney Ducks Comic Universe:
The Italian 4-part story "La Grande Corsa" (The Big Race) has a time controlling midget steals Scrooge's dime and makes him participate in a rally (in the Duckburg from past, present, and future) against his opponents, and with the help of his friends and family, in order to take it back.
The Carl Barks story "The Hard Loser" involves Donald competing against Huey, Dewie, and Louie in an anything goes horse race. Donald finishes first, only to find out the last horse to finish is considered the winner. Donald takes this about as well as you might expect. Barks revisited the concept in "The Chuckwagon Derby", with Donald and Uncle Scrooge racing antique cars.

Carmageddon and its sequels. Street racing of the classic arcade formula - try to keep your timer up while you attempt to complete your objective. Only instead of just completing the race as your objective, you can instead destroy all your opponents, or run over every pedestrian in the level (which includes cows). The whole mass-murdering ordeal caused no small controversy and the pedestrians were replaced with zombies or robots for some markets.

MechWarrior Living Legends has a small number of racing maps made with the game's Level Editor. Being a combined arms simulation wargame, most of the vehicle selection consists of main battle tanks, Humongous Mecha, hovercraft, artillery pieces, etc. Weapons-live racing is either allowed or restricted, depending on the race. The two most prominent racing maps, TSA_Mariokart and TSA_RACE_Kaido incorporate Gravity Screw elements, such as massive jumps or airborne sections of track.

LEGO:
LEGO 2K Drive is an open world racing game with some rather eccentric opponents (crop duster pilot, astronomer) with vehicles to match (World War 2 fighter plane on wheels, moon buggy). There are weapons that can be used during races and the vehicles transform when they encounter different terrain.
LEGO Racers is a Mascot Racer pitting robots, pirates, and medieval knights in themed karts against each other on tracks through arctic regions, Egyptian pyramids, and the surface of the moon. It's one of the few games of this type where power ups need to be built (out of Lego of course).

Cannonball (1976) depicts a cross-country (Santa Monica to New York) road race which is also illegal (the race has to be started early due to the police being alerted). There seem to be no restrictions against hampering your opponents as a few teams actively try to cause their opponents to wreck. There is, however, a restriction against flying across the country (which gets one driver disqualified). Downplayed in that the drivers and their cars are relatively normal.

A popular 'sport' in World of Tanks is ELC racing, which pits small, fast French light tanks in head-to-head races around a variety of maps. The challenge is to make it to the end without being shot, getting stuck, or flying off a cliff because you couldn't slow down to make a turn. Sometimes other models of tanks are raced, such as Cromwells or Chaffees.

Midnight Club features the exploitation of shortcuts and ramps it up with insane jumps. The vehicle list includes several cars that look like they came out of The Fast and the Furious note  Even though the first game predated the film by a year. as well as buses, ice cream trucks, and taxis.
The first sequel took a step back with the vehicles by limiting them to customized cars and motorcycles but took the stunts a little further with Car Skiing and weight transfer in midair.
The third installment added special abilities like Bullet Time and sonic blasts which part the traffic ahead. The vehicles could now be customized by the player, so they could be as eccentric as desired. Better yet, the game dumped the Fauxrrari approach of the first two games in favor of featuring real life vehicles-including super-rare vehicles like the McLaren F1 and even concept cars like the Cadillac Sixteen.

Every quarter of the race has them interrupted by some wacky obstacle like Atalanta growing apple trees on the racetrack or Boudicca lashing out because she doesn't have a playable swimsuit version. And then it turns into the Great Escape as they get locked up in prison with Medb acting as a warden and the whole event was orchestrated by Ishtar to revive her great bull Gulganna.

Interstate '76: The Nitro Pack expansion had one mission where Taurus had to race against Drinky, a clown in an armed VW Beetle. It was considered to be one of the worst missions in the entire expansion pack due to the game not counting a lap if one of the tires of the car Taurus was driving went off the track but placing no such restrictions on his opponent. While both vehicles were armed, shooting Taurus's opponent also failed the mission (and given how annoying Drinky's taunting was, the player would definitely want to shoot him).

Team Fortress 2 introduces the Payload Race mode. The RED and BLU teams push a cart (Packed with an ammo/health dispenser and a massive bomb) from their side of the area to the opposing team's base. Whoever gets theirs to the final station wins. Of course, they're free to screw with each other's progress. There's also a map based on the same principle called, you guessed it, wackyraces. There is also a variation called Balloon Race, which pits the two teams in a zany dirigible race (which tends to end with people exploding, naturally).

The fifth Accel World novel actually has one of these as a special, one-off event to celebrate the adding of the space elevator to the Unlimited Field. Since the kings customarily do not take part in such events, Haruyuki uses it as a chance to convince Sky Raker to rejoin Nega Nebulous on a full-time basis to round out their four-person team. Of course something happens to interrupt it.

Choro Q series isn't as wacky as others in term of a racing rule. However, after the 2nd game, the series started to put the racing courses that are beyond reality such as a disco factory, a sewer, inside a castle, a haunthouse, outer space, on the sky, under the water, and other weird possible areas. And instead of powerup, they have upgradable parts which are crazy instead.

Cruis'n USA is relatively normal other than the hidden cars including a school bus and a police car. The sequels, however:
Cruis'n World provides a number of interesting vehicles to race with, including an army Humvee, a three-wheeled truck, and a big rig. The courses are laid out around the world where you end up racing through Egyptian pyramids, underwater tunnels, and the Great Wall of China.
Cruis'n Exotica goes a bit further with races taking place underwater, in prehistoric jungle, and on Mars. There are a few licensed vehicles...as well as a Volkswagen van, a Nash Metropolitan, and a rusty station wagon.

The TV series of Future GPX Cyber Formula has this with more wacky racing courses like a track with ice hills and roads with time-floods, with booster-equipped cars as the racing machines. In the OVAs however, this aspect has been largely abandoned.

The Grand Finale for The Powerpuff Girls has a scene where all the villains drive racecars (with Mojo Jojo's tank resembling a cross between the Mean Machine and the Army Surplus Special) to race to the Mayor's office where the Key to the World is being hidden. Upon insistence from the Professor, the Girls drive a dune buggy (which looked like a pink Shout-Out to Speed Buggy).

The Car Wars boardgame by Steve Jackson Games. It's 20 Minutes into the Future and the aftermath of a nuclear war and everyone drives around in cars with machine guns and lasers and the like. Sometimes there are races, but other times the drivers just blow seven bells out of each other's vehicles in an arena or on the road.

The Great Balloon Race A=concerns an international balloon race from France to Egypt, with little in the way of rules or oversight, a route that takes the competitors over an active volcano (amongst other hazards), and ends at the Great Pyramid of Giza, with the winner landing atop it (although that was an accident and not a victory condition).

Extreme-G:
Superfast motorbikes with all sorts of weapons.
The original Extreme-G on the N64 was able to actually overdo the wackiness. There was a cheat code that enabled you to get a random secondary weapon just by clicking its fire button as opposed to running over a power-up on the track. And this worked for the A.I. racers too. Cue much rocketspamming and the amount of carnage going on could mess up the N64's processor and graphics and reduce the game to its bare wireframe models in that race.

Pokémon: The Series:
An episode of the original series had a race between trainers riding one of their Pokémon (or in one case, Pikachu riding Squirtle).
One episode during the Johto saga had something called "Extreme Pokémon", where the Pokémon pulled the trainer on a skateboard.
And the Summer School arc in the middle of the Sinnoh saga concludes with a relay race where racers change mounts at certain points.

Top Gear:
One of the show's favorite features, to say the least. One thing they love to do is race cars against things that cars usually don't compete with. For example, the Bugatti Veyron (1000 bhp supercar) vs. Eurofighter Typhoon (top-rated fighter jet) in a drag race (vertical vs. horizontal), Mazda M-5 vs. a greyhound (the dog, not the bus), compact car vs. Le Parkour, Historic People Carrier/Motorhome/Passenger Bus/Airport Vehicle Racing, a rally car on ice vs. bobsledders (and later a second Rally car vs a skeleton luge), and so on. The amazing thing about the Bugatti Veyron race was not that the Bugatti lost, but that it lost by only four seconds.
Relatedly, they often race cars vs. various forms of mass transit, such as trains or (if geography allows) boats. While theoretically useful for commuters, these races tend to be carried to such extremes as to provide little practical information.
The double-decker car racing, depicted above. The catch is simple: you sit above, your partner sits below. You have the steering, he has the acceleration. The first race of this type pitted England vs. Germany. The same challenge was repeated in the Ashes Special, against the Top Gear Australia hosts. Except the steering car has been turned upside down, but only for the Australian team.
Racing "the post". They basically raced against an abstract concept. And lost. Ostensibly, they were racing a relay team; mail boat takes the letter from the island to the mainland, where a series of planes and trucks carry it further until it reaches the local post office where a dude comes round and delivers it.
Clarkson actually dared race against God. Well, technically, he attempted to drive across England in one night from west to east before the sun could rise. And he also won.
Richard Hammond has held several rally races using a strange selection of vehicles, all with various Touring Car champions as competitors, to determine which one is the fastest within that set, and all of them inevitably wind up like this. We've had caravans, buses, airport vehicles, international taxis and movie-set vehicles.
Top Gear (US) had gas-guzzling super-tuned mountain car vs. a pro kayaker down a mountain.

One of the settings written for d20 Modern (published in Polyhedron Magazine) was "Thunderball Rally", which revolved around the eponymous secret cross-country race. The writers made perfectly clear in the notes that, aside from a few twists added to make it more action-driven (one of the race's sponsors is The Mafia and they really don't like blabbers, for example), the setting is a huge homage to The Cannonball Run.

The Cannonball Run is based on the Cannonball Baker Sea-To-Shining-Sea Memorial Trophy Dash (and written by the creator of that race, Brock Yates). In addition to the characters being allowed to directly impede their opponents' progress, the racers are a bit eccentric, with one having a superhero alter ego, another believing he's a famous actor (who happens to play him), and a guy who seems a bit psychotic note  when he arrives at the hotel where the race starts, he parks his truck in the lobby . One team masquerades as a paramedic team in an ambulance and two teams use gadget-laden cars as if to cement its status as this trope.
The sequel, The Cannonball Run II, continues the tradition of racers being allowed to directly impede their opponents. Vehicles include a military stretch limo whose team pretends to be a Nuclear Tactical Team, a gadget-laden sports car, and another limo with a false front seat for a monkey to sit in. Another team has to repeatedly change cars due to frequent breakdowns and another team is a target for kidnapping by a group of inept gangsters.
Downplayed by Speed Zone! (1989), a semi-sequel. The teams are a little less eccentric than the previous two films and the cars are relatively normal note  one team has a computer in their car and another team, a news crew, races in their news van . But the directly impeding other racers is alive and well and various bizarre occurrences happen during the race. For example, one team tries to fly across the country and end up bribing the pilot to drive the plane on the highway after its wings are sheared off.

The entire Need for Speed franchise is basically Super Smash Bros. as a racing game franchise with real-life licensed cars instead of characters as fighters for you to slam each other. A few notable ones put here:
The Need for Speed is no slouch either: You can have stock sports cars from Japan, Europe, and America battling each other on the highways. Subsequent games like Need for Speed II and III: Hot Pursuit up the ante by having varieties of European and American supercars beating each other up, with Hammerspace Police Force launching Hot Pursuit turning the races into Blood Sport since the latter.
Underground and Underground 2: Nitro-equipped, highly pimped out import tuners speed around Olympic City and Bayview, through coastlines, back alleys, spillways, factories, and going at 400 km/h in the highways. The roads are packed with civilian traffic.
Need for Speed: Most Wanted 2005 and Carbon: Same as before, but bring back German and Italian supercars last seen in classic era, and just to top the whole thing off, bring back a police department with infinite funds and reserves.
It gets better in 2010's Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit, where you can play as the Rabid Cop wrecking the wacky racers' fun. Same goes to its 2013 Spiritual Successor, Need for Speed Rivals.
Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2012) is Burnout Paradise with cops, licensed cars, a bigger social element, and slightly more realistic physics and handling.
Unbound is taken to such absurdity, adding cartoon-style driving effects while racing, complete with stylish Cel Shading tire smoke.
