Hey guys, I was just curious if the Irrlicht is a good engine for making a 3d racing game similar to Mario Kart. If so, do you have any recommendations for how to get started with it. If not, do you recommend any engine that would be good for it

Take a look at my driving demos. That should help with your engine appraisal.

BTW You posted in the wrong section - this is for people to post stuff to help others, not ask questions!

I have to stop you there. Please read the FAQ:

Irrlicht is not a game engine, it only does graphics. For a game, you need a bit more, like sound output and maybe networking and physics, and tools such as a game level editor. You are free to choose any other library to do this.

Irrlicht is an appropriate graphics engine for a racing game.
