Back 2 School 2022: History Class is Now in Session!
Hey, Nitro racers!
The summer season is winding down, and the whole team’s been hard at work over at Nitro HQ lately: cracking down on things like Nitro Math (Soon™!) and the brand-new Casual Mode (out now!) – very busy times! Well, a couple of weeks ago, we were working on more awesome new stuff, just business as usual…until suddenly we heard a loud noise from the break room – BANG BOOM CRASH!!!
We rush in there to see what the heck happened, and who else do we find but the Wampus? Sitting in some kinda strange contraption, with a bunch of historical objects in tow, he tells us that he found somebody selling a real live bona-fide time machine online for a steal of a deal – only a billion Nitro bucks. “I couldn’t afford not to get it!”
So of course, he decides that the best course of action is to go on a joyride through history (without telling us), messing up the space-time continuum along the way, and bringing us a few “souvenirs”, as he put it… Well now we have an entire sphinx statue outside the building, a genuine Wampus-headed Mona Lisa painting on the wall, and a massive T-rex raiding the fridge and eating Travis’ lunch.
It’s been a little rough getting adjusted (does anybody know any pet stores around here that sell dinosaur food?), but we’ve decided to make the most of these awesome old-school items we’ve got in our hands by using them in our newest Nitro season!
Enter Back 2 School 2022!
Welcome, one and all, to our annual Back 2 School season! School is revving back up, so everybody find a (driver’s) seat, face the board, and get ready for History Class! 22 tiers await you in this jam-packed school-time season, but with a twist…this reward track is filled to the brim with old-school loot of historical proportions! Cars, stickers, trails, titles, and tons of Nitro Cash are, as always, ready for you to earn! Keep reading to see a detailed breakdown of all the rewards we’ve got in store for ya this time.
First time playing Nitro Type?
If this is your first time experiencing this game, then just know that your teacher is certified awesome…and welcome welcome welcome! For the uninitiated, Nitro Type pits you up against people from around the world in an all-out keyboarding drag race! Hone your typing skills, improve your WPM speed, and go for the win while collecting awesome animated cars, stickers, and other epic loot along the way. And you can even race against your friends and see who’s the best typist in the class!
One of the main three methods of earning new items and badges of skill to show off, alongside the rotating Item Shop and set-in-stone Achievements, are the limited-time Seasons we run throughout the year! Usually lasting from one to three months, every season you can earn Experience (XP) by completing races and challenges to make your way through an entire reward track full of awesome loot! And you just happened to catch us as we’re firing up our latest season…Back 2 School 2022!
But whether you’re a seasoned veteran or you just got your Nitro license, you’ve probably got one thing on your mind… “What kinda stuff can I earn this season?” Well you’re in luck, cuz we’ve got a detailed dissection of the whole season’s contents right here! Without any further ado, let’s get on into the…
Back 2 School Breakdown!
Let’s start off strong with the main attraction: Cars! We’ve got four brand-new (conceptually, at least) cars ready for you to earn in Back 2 School 2022. Race with power and style in the Hotrod Model T, sail the seven seas with speed in the animated Ship of the Line, hop on the Drone Chariot and pull yourself along in an epic past/future fusion, and even race along in the animated HG Time Machine! Fair warning though, you can’t just time-travel straight to the finish line. Believe me, we tried.
And what would a history-themed season be without a Nitro Type throwback to call its own? Incidentally, during his joyride through time, the Wampus managed to bump into (among other things) his gold-mining cousin, the Chompus! He offered to make an appearance and give the Nitro Racer another ride in his minecart, so I guess it all worked out in the end. Returning for the first time since 2020’s Wampus World season…the Chompus’ Wild Ride rolls onto the track exclusively for our Nitro Gold Members!
Trails and Loot Galore!
Of course, cars aren’t all! We’ve also got tons of other loot items in this season, including…three new trails! Learn some history knowledge as you type with a sweet History Timeline, recount memories of years long past with the Time Flies trail, and– HOLY SMOKES, is that a dinosaur chasing your car!? I guess ol’ Rexy broke loose from the office…you’d better type as fast as you can before they have a chance to catch up!
Plus, we’ve got a variety of stickers available in this season too! From an epic astronaut on the moon, to a cool sunglasses-wearing sphinx, to a genuine Wampus Mona Lisa painted by Leonitro Da Vinci, to a retro Offline Dino! I’m glad we’re not living in an age without internet anymore.
On top of all of those items, we’ve got five new titles for you to earn as well! With such hits as “Tyrannosaurus Typist”, “Barbarian” and “Pharaoh”, you can get into the historical spirit in style. And as always, there’s over $4,500,000 in Nitro Bucks for you to earn across the reward track! If there’s one thing noted historical figures were famous for, it was being rich. But if you’re itching for moar money, then you can keep racing past the reward track and level up your Infinity Tier, which (at the cost of requiring double the XP points per level), grants you an extra $100K every time you rank up! Infinite money, infinite awesomeness.
Gold Rush!
Of course, to receive the full lineup of all the rewards we listed here, you’re gonna need a Nitro Gold membership! On top of a whole entire year of full season passes (that leaves you covered with tons of exclusive cars and loot well into next Summer), you also gain a lot of extra benefits such as 20% bonus Nitro Cash and Season XP per race, no ads across the entire site, exclusive gilded rewards that you can keep even after your membership expires, and plenty more! Plus, you directly support the Nitro Team, so we can keep making the features and cars you love. So, ready to go Gold?

So now you know the ins-and-outs of this historical season, so what are you waiting for? Head on over to the Season rewards page to check out the entire reward track for yourself (and see all those cars and trails in their animated glory), then head out onto the track and start racking up those levels! Meanwhile, I’m gonna go have a stern talk with the Wampus about his spending habits (...again.) But until next time: be wary of rogue dinos, don’t cause a paradox, and as always…
🏁 Happy Racing! 🏁
