Further explanation of the theme, as described by jBhIps:

"I love concept by Citroën, he's big, he's more like a spaceship, but let's pretend that this is a
great drift car. The other day, I tried drifting on the Citroën GT and I liked it. Show me what this
Citroën can do. Find the best angle and shot to show the strength with which this giant is turning.
It should be exciting, realistic, and of course with the smoke from the tires."

CAR: Citroën GT Race Car by Citroën
LOCATION: Eiger Nordwand Short Track

Sounds like a fun theme. The definition of "ironic": making a drifting Citroën GT Race Car look realistic... :)
 
I tried to reshoot my old "Fail" picture. But damn, I ended up spinning around in this corner over and over. :ill:
For me, the road version felt way better for drifting...not as aggressive as the race-version.

But anyway, I changed my Final Entry here :)
