TrackMania Nations

This is probably one of the best and most popular freeware race games of the moment. It was originally made for the Electronic Sports World Cup, where people from all countries compete for prizes totalling $40,000! The Electronic Sports World Cup is over now, but the game is still fun to play.

It has a very good online-playing option where you can race against other drivers from all over the world.

Most servers will use custom tracks which are build with the track editor, which comes standard with the game. You can also edit the cars in the game, but in my opinion it is very cool to drive with a premade car which has the colors of your country. So when you joined a server of a foreign country, you have to defend the pride of your own country!

Race fans will experience a lot of fun when racing the tracks, whether it is in online or offline mode. The developers had a lot of fantasy when they made this game. There are loopings, wallrides and jumps in the tracks, which sometimes makes it hard to finish a track when you drive on it for the first time.

For real TrackManiacs this is worth the 266 Mb download! You get a really nice racing game and you don't have to pay anything to enjoy the full game.
