Codemasters plans to release a DLC pack for its rather excellent Race Driver: GRID. The 8-Ball pack will be released later this autumn and will be available on Xbox LIVE Marketplace and PSN - there's no pricing info or firm release date just yet.

The pack will include the McLaren F1 GTR, TVR Cerbera Speed 12, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X, Honda S2000, Nissan GT-R (S-G2008), VW Nardo, Pontiac Firebird Trans AM and Volvo C30. Each car will be available in Race Day mode and when taking the action online.

Xbox 360 gamers can also look forward to four new Achievements offering 100 gamerscore points.

GRID players can expect more DLC to follow with Codemasters noting it plans to introduce some V8 Supercars. Expect some Ford and Holden cars plus the Bathurst race track.
