Well I am sure some of you are aware of the GRID issues about pauses while driving. Well So games don't get damaged I like to make a backup of games i'll play alot. I just did this with Grid.

I backed it up with MS28, using XBC 2.8. I then burnt onto 8x Verbatim and strangely I don't get these issues with the backup, however I did with original? I don't understand that.

Anyone know of a theory why?

The original was dirty or smudged in some way?

I have no theory as to why your backup would perform better than the original.. but i can say that the game is full of glitches.. Using a backup, I was halfway done a race when my screen turned yellow and three achievements popped up: airborne - get a car airborn for 1 sec , short haul - drive a total of 500 miles , long haul - drive a total of 1000 miles... I had been playing for 1 hour and had maybe driven 100 miles. The game crashed after and I had to restart, but I still had the achievements lol
