ACCOLADE INVITES FORMULA ONE RACING FANS TO ENTER THE EXCITING GRAND PRIX UNLIMITED TRACK DESIGN CONTEST SAN JOSE, CA -- AUGUST 27, 1992 -- Accolade, the industry leader in computer driving simulations, has announced that Road & Track Magazine and Computer Gaming World Magazine are sponsoring the Grand Prix Unlimited Track Design Contest. Using Accolade's recently released computer game, Road & Track Presents: Grand Prix Unlimited, players create on disk their most exciting race track with straightaways, curves, tunnels, pit-stops, hills and buildings. The judges from Road & Track and Computer Gaming World will determine the winning entry based on originality, creativity and realism. Prizes include a complete auto sound system or one of 31 other great prizes. To create a race track, players, using the Unlimited Architect feature in Grand Prix Unlimited, simply place square tiles down on the terrain and road they want to race on. Once the course is mapped out, it can then be lined with an entire library of objects such as signs, spectators and buildings. With the large variety of tiles available, just about any type of course can be built. To enter the design contest, players, using Grand Prix Unlimited, must design a track with a start and finish, a minimum of 75 tiles and a maximum of 100 tiles. The design must then be exported to a floppy disk and mailed, along with name, address and phone number to: Grand Prix Unlimited sign Contest, P.O. Box 1946, Cupertino, CA 95015-1946.
