An Experimental Survival Driving Game? Yes!
Its not often that truly great game comes completely free of charge. Most free to play downloadable games come with the ever enticing addition of a shop pulling you closer to actually shelling out the cash you once though you were saving, but with the student developed racer, Nitronic Rush, you can be sure of a damn fine game that will never even stare suggestively at your pockets.

GamesRadar - Mix one part Speed Racer, two parts Tron, and a dash of F-Zero GX. Cook it under the exhaust of a jet engine, and you’ll get Nitronic Rush, a high-adrenaline arcade racer that puts plenty of paid games to shame. Made from scratch by a team of DigiPen students, this is, without a doubt, the best school project we’ve ever seen (and played), with a bevy of futuristic, high-adrenaline tracks that live up to the game’s unique genre: experimental survival driving.
