Codemasters confirm GRID 2's track list totalling 82, most in "day & night"
Due at the end of this month is Codemasters' GRID 2 and so now would be a great time to let fans know what tracks they'll be barrelling down. In a rather lengthy post they reveal there are 82 race tracks.
Most are available with day & night cycles, but some are limited to just sunset, or are tied to pre-orders. GRID 2 will be releasing on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC May 28th in the US, 31st in EU.

Codemasters had immediate plans for a sequel to GRID, but senior games designer Ross Gowing admits their ambitions surpassed what they could accomplish with the hardware at the time.
Five years of platform know-how and improvements to the EGO engine mean GRID 2 can become a reality. Game features must be "absolutely first class" or they're not worth pursuing.
