This mod is for single player or online private host session. You need to have Grid patched to v1.3. If you join a public host, you will be kicked when race starts. The mod comes with a modified database.bin file to let the host pick any track across 5 events(covering all grid tracks) and players pick any car to race with. There is a 6th event with 14 tracks to choose along with the choice of 3 cars (jupiter,cuda or boss mustang)which is the demolition derby event.
Some features:
-Multiple changes to the Raceday part of game.
-The Porche is now selectable and can be purchased in career mode or used for online private host.
-2 touge tracks can be used for online private host
-Freestyle D (open drifting track) can be used in career/test drive or online private host to mess around on(great for cops/robbers team demo derby battles).
-Both demo derby tracks can now be used in career/test drive so you can now race your ghost car to better your times, see where you are losing time.
"Career" mode and "online private hosting":
Many events have less cars to choose from or are missing tracks, they were needed in the 6 main Career events to achieve AnyCar AnyTrack. Most of the stuff was pulled from drift and touge events.
-Change the amount of event races to higher values to allow all tracks per event possible to be played.
-Lemans 24hr is now San Fran grand prix track.
-Enabled derby tracks and freestyle drift tracks a,b,c,d to be used in test drive.
-Increased demolition to 19 AI cars.They extra 8 AI drive the Cuda and Boss Mustang.
-ACAT:5 events set up with 16 tracks , all of these events have 43 cars to choose from (in career only 21 show up as selectable)
-1 Derby event set up with 14 tracks, the majority being the smallest circuits of each city.You can choose the Jupiter,Cuda or Boss Mustang.
An update to the mod is under way and hopefully permission is given by codemasters to allow us to provide the acat mod and all dlc's for grid in one package. You can follow this thread Community.codemasters.com
Without permission then it will just be the acat mod update which has: - -drift cars readded by themselves as new race cars which are purchasable.
-white tint used for every car skin instead of yellow tint so white cars are actually white.
-dirt and scratches are no longer stored. Car will look brand new for every race and take dirt/scratches as hit.
-new cars have really low price.
-with new profile all cars available to drive in freerace mode.
-2 new events made in freerace mode, acat race rules and acat derby rules.
-all cars available to drive in both touge events.
-20 plus team brandings for your career car have been added for selection.
-career has extra car selections available,, for instance for the aston vs corvette event, you choose any of the gt1 cars to go against them. Only the 6 standard events in career for acat online remain as they were from last version so online acat still exists.
-ryder's language tool allowed us to do up some proper entries for the mod but only for english.

Race Driver: Grid is a 2008 racing video game developed and published by Codemasters for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Nintendo DS, arcade, Java ME and OS X. It is the first game in the Grid series.[5][6]
Grid was developed and published by Codemasters, the creators of the TOCA series. It is a game in which the player runs their own race team, acting as the primary driver. As players progress they gain sponsors and can hire a teammate to drive alongside them in certain events.
The game begins with the player accepting jobs to drive for other teams to earn money, and once the player gains enough capital they can purchase their own vehicles and drive independently, as well as continuing to drive for other teams should they choose to. Grid features a gameplay mechanic known as Flashback which allows the player to rewind gameplay by up to ten seconds and resume from their chosen point, similar to the "rewind" ability in Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. This is a limited-use feature, determined by the difficulty setting.
Grid features several modes of competition using various cars. Three main regions are found in the game, United States, Europe, and Japan, each with their own championship. Each of the game's 43 cars are tied to one of these three regions. Grid also features several types of events to compete in, including GT championships, drifting, touge, open wheel racing and demolition derby, as well as variants on several of these motorsports. Players can also participate in the 24 Hours of Le Mans at the end of each racing season.
Courses in the game are a mixture of real world and fictional circuits and point-to-point tracks. Real road courses such as Le Mans and Spa-Francorchamps are included, while some defunct street circuits such as the Detroit street circuit in Michigan and the Washington D.C. street circuit are also included. There are also several fictional tracks inspired by real-world locations and circuits, such as street courses in San Francisco, California and Milan, Italy as well as Mount Haruna.
The Nintendo DS version is a racing simulator consisting of twenty available circuits across Europe, Japan and the US, along with 25 cars to choose from. The game also includes an updated version of the track designer from Race Driver: Create & Race, which allows players to create their own custom circuits and roadside billboards.[7] The game also features vehicle customization and online multiplayer.[8]
Grid uses Codemasters' own Ego engine, an updated version of the Neon engine already being used in the critically acclaimed Colin McRae: Dirt. The damage code has been completely rewritten to allow for environments with the potential for persistent damage.[9] Ambisonics was used in the audio engine of the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions.[10] Firebrand Games, developer of Race Driver: Create & Race, made a Nintendo DS version of the game that ran on Create's Octane engine, incorporating its 3D racing graphics, user interface and track editor.[3][4]
A mobile version published by Glu Mobile was released in April 2008.[11][12] A demo was released on the PlayStation Store, Xbox Live Marketplace and for Microsoft Windows in May 2008.[13] The demo allowed players to try two game modes: racing and drifting. The demo also featured a competition challenge, with a BMW 3 series, as a prize, for European-based gamers,[14] and a Ford Mustang for U.S.-based players.[15] The American competition ended at midnight on 25 May, whereas the European competition ended on 31 May, also at midnight. The demo also had two competition tracks available online, and allowed up to 12 players to compete online. The demo has been downloaded by over one million people over three platforms.[16][17]
In 2010, an arcade version of the game was published by Sega. Grid has had its official servers for Microsoft Windows and PlayStation 3 shut down as of 19 June 2011.[18] The servers for the Xbox 360 version are still running as of July 2014.
Codemasters released two downloadable content (DLC) packs; the first of the two was released on 4 December 2008, the 8-Ball Pack on the Xbox Live Marketplace and the PlayStation Network. The pack contained eight new cars and these include the McLaren F1 GTR, TVR Cerbera Speed 12, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X, Honda S2000, Nissan GT-R (S-G2008), Volkswagen Nardo, Pontiac Firebird and the Volvo C30. The 8-Ball Pack also came complete with two new multiplayer events set on existing circuits from across Grid's three continents. The second DLC pack dubbed the Prestige Pack was released in March 4, 2010 (for the PlayStation 3 only). The pack added Mount Panorama Circuit and ten cars, including the Ferrari F430 GTC, Bugatti Veyron and Ferrari F575 GTC.[citation needed]
Edge ranked the game #41 on its list of "The 100 Best Games To Play Today", stating that: "it blows cobwebs from the genre, with handling a great balance of sim twitchiness and arcade abandon, breathtaking speed, and a sense of being there like no other racer".[47]
North American publication Nintendo Power gave the game a score of 8.5 out of ten. The review heaped praise on the game's robust car and course customization features, superb graphics, and multiplayer modes.[8] N-Europe gave the game an eight out of ten.[48] IGN awarded Grid with its DS: Best Racing Game 2008 award.[49]
