Making A New Racing/Car Game

Recently I have had a nice thought in my head. I want to make a car game sort of like Vehicle Simulator, you drive around to earn money, and you can race your friends. I want it to be unique though, so I came up with a retro sort of idea.

Problem is, I’ve never made a car game before, yet alone any real game to be honest. I have no idea where to start, and I’m not really sure of if I’m even capable to make a decent game.

Any ideas or help for where I could start would be great!
