If you haven't played wiikart or its open source alternative, super tux kart, I suggest that you download the later now and give it a try. This game can be enormously as it can be played with four player in split screen and tonnes of laughter ensues when playing. Even me and my mum had a fun time playing it although she couldn't quite control the kart.
What's intriguing is how some of the levels are relaxing, for example the snow tux peak, with its calm country music and the mellow mountain scenery ... I often take the joystick, sit back and treat myself to ten laps of solo karting, no AI, no powerups, no nitro, just me and the kart on the snow.
What immediately comes to mind is to have maps that are designed to be relaxing. For example we could take the mentioned "snow tux peak" map, tilt the camera a bit higher so we see more of the scenery, add some could remove the sharp bends and map objects, and voila ... a very relaxing drive.
Now it would be much better to make the road a bit longer and add more scenery. One could even do with a procedural scenery generator with an infinite map, letting you drive through different landscapes with pleasure.
