How to get game to appear on secondary display not primary?

I just picked up GRID this weekend since it was on sale on Steam, and I'm trying to figure out how to get it to display on my second display, not my primary one.

The game doesn't seem to offer a Windowed mode, so I can't switch to Windowed, drag it over to the other display, and then switch back to Fullscreen, which is what I've done with other games.

Any ideas?

I've even tried using UltraMon but even that won't push it to the other display.

Knowing your hardware specs would be helpful, but my first suggestion woudl be to designate the other monitor as the primary. Depending on what hardware you have, you shoudl be abe to set up hotkeys to quickly switch primary display form one to the other...

Some games have a line in their config files that allow the user to select a monitor other than primary - not sure if you can with Grid.

I think I got it... used UltraMon to switch Primary and that seems to work (a bit awkwardly but it works. Thanks :)
