SEGA Announces New Addition to GRID Driving Series
Last week, SEGA Amusements announced a new addition to the GRID driving game series - the GRID 42" DLX. Also included in this series is the GRID 32" STD and the GRID 55" DLX.

The new 42" machine bridges the gap between the 32" STD and the 55" DLX, and creates an immersive racing simulation with more tools, as well as a larger screen.

"GRID is hands down the best coin-op racing simulator available today," said Sega Sales Manager, Tom Keil. "GRID delivers a level of realism that gives players an extremely good idea of what it would be like to race some of world's most amazing super cars. There are subtle differences from one car to the other that include engine sound, braking and acceleration capabilities, and top-end speed. The end result is a driving experience you'd have to layout half a million dollars to realize outside of an entertainment center."

GRID 42" Dlx's list of impressive features includes:
  • Tri-color LED lighting throughout. LED's changes color to match the action.
  • Full Feedback Steering
  • 2.1 Sound System with seat-mounted sub-woofer that raises the immersive experience by delivering road feedback as subtle as paint stripes to the player
  • Linkable to 6 cabinets for out-of-this-world multiplayer competition
  • True Damage Modeling – if you hit the wall, you see the results including broken glass, flapping hoods, swinging doors, and dragging bumpers.
