Tiny Track Rally: Free Online Car Racing Game

Tiny Track Rally shrinks a racing championship down to toy size. The cars are small and chunky, the tracks wind through low-poly pine forests and past rows of camping tents, and the camera sits just behind your bumper as the start lights count down. Five cars line up on the grid, and you start at the back.

The first cup has five tracks: Pine Loop, Tent Town, Zig Zag Ridge, Lakeside Sprint and Canyon Hook. Each one is three laps, and each comes with its own conditions, so you might race in clear daylight on one, at sunset on the next and through rain or fog after that. Stars from your finishes unlock the tracks one at a time, and collecting twelve opens the second cup, which is longer and harder.

The driving is built around drifting. Hold a turn at speed and the car slides into a drift, and drifting is what fills your nitro bar. Press nitro on a straight for a burst of speed, then go looking for the next corner to charge it again. The road is dotted with pickups too: coins for cash, blue canisters that top up your nitro and orange pads that fire you forward the moment you touch them.

Every race also hands you a short list of missions, such as finishing in the top three, reaching a set speed or collecting a number of coins. They pop up with a cheer when you complete them, and they give a careful driver something to chase even when first place is out of reach. A camera button switches between views if you want a wider look at the track.

Between races there is a garage to spend your winnings in, an awards screen, a daily reward and a daily challenge with a bonus for winning on a particular track. Tiny Track Rally is free, loads in a few seconds and runs in your browser with no download. On a touchscreen the car accelerates by itself and you steer with the left side of the screen.
