Today we've got the first in-game screenshots from Codemasters upcoming GRID racing game for Xbox 360 and Playstation 3, the next evolution in the TOCA Race Car series previously named Race Driver One.

These five screens show off a progression of cornering and drifting from a behind-the-car perspective. From them you'll get an idea of scoring, visuals, and the heads-up display.

GRID features aggressive wheel-to-wheel racing, spectacular crashes and a jaw-dropping damage engine.

Gamers will compete on Europe's greatest official race tracks in prestige Marques including Aston Martin, Koenigsegg and Pagani. Iconic cities across the U.S, including San Francisco, Washington DC and Detroit - each with their own atmosphere and events - will play host to diverse street races, where high-performance V8 muscle cars set the pace in aggressive, closely fought pack competitions.

And in the Far East, Japanese racing culture sets the tone where night races, including Drift racing, takes drivers through neon illuminated cities and to outlying mountain roads. There's also the opportunity to compete in races that operate on the fringes of legality in the back streets and industrial areas of Yokohama.
