(PRWEB) April 7, 2005 -- Beyond the incredible cars, fabulous food, and fascinating vendors, that will be attending the 2005 Doctor Larry's Automotive Specialists Kingwood Spring Car Show (held at Kingwood's Town Center Park on Sunday April 24th) a highlight of the show will be the opportunity for a virtual drive of many of the cars that will be featured at the show. This is being provided by GameForce, Inc., a Town Center merchant and event sponsor.
Gran Turismo 4 is a brand new PS/2 game from Sony and was recently featured on "The Apprentice." For the Car Show, GameForce will provide a full cockpit with steering wheel and pedal, and attendees can stop by their booth to either take their turn at the wheel or just enjoy watching as a spectator.
According to the review on www.ign.com, "Gran Turismo 4 uses an all-new physics engine coupled with revolutionary technology to deliver enhanced game physics and graphics providing a near-realistic automotive racing simulation." (For the techno-illiterate, this means it's really fun)
A Gran Turismo 4 tournament started on April 17th at the GameForce center located at 4429 Town Center Place, in Kingwood. The finals of the event will be conducted during the Car Show. Ryan Austin, Gameforce President says, "We definitely believe that this will be one of the highlights of the show, and we will display a sign at each car in the show that is available in the game. There are over 700 cars, more than 100 courses and plenty of unique surprises for automotive enthusiasts. Our best players will have the opportunity to show off their driving skills in our booth, and the tournament winner will be announced during the awards ceremony."
GameForce was founded in July 2004 by father and son team of Tony and Ryan Austin. The GameForce center, located on the second level of the Town Center promenade, is a gamers dream with 24 top-of-the-line gaming PC stations and two custom made X-Boxes stations displayed on 50" Samsung 5070 HDTV DLP TV's.
Visitors can test out the latest game releases on the blazing fast 3 Mbit business class cable, and Game Force has an exciting line-up of tournaments and LAN parties throughout the year.
