GRID features a number of different events that will have players testing their endurance skills, speed in time trials, and even drifting. While going fast and finishing first is definitely on the agenda, finishing in second, third, and even fifth place in some events still puts cash in your pocket. In addition, sponsorships will become available as your reputation improves throughout the circuit.

From there, players will begin to acquire more cars with their winnings. With only a few cars at your disposal, the goal is to collect enough prize money to begin your own racing team.

In the single player campaign, or career mode, GRID World starts players as a newcomer to the racing scene. These two options are accompanied by Multiplayer which can be plaed via LAN or the internet. When you're ready to race, players have the choice of entering the game's career mode, called GRID World, or selecting Race Day that allows players to customize the racing experience by choosing the venue, track, car, number of laps, and race type.

While the slope of such a curve will be dependent upon prior experience with other racing games, those who are either new to the genre or simply do not play driving games very often should find their way after a few short races. The absence of a tutorial may appear to represent a narrow learning curve, but be assured that there most definitely is one. As mentioned before, players will begin racing right away without any practice runs.
