As much as I enjoy the photomode in GT5, I sometimes prefer to use a completely black or completely white backdrop, or as close as I can (for a cleaner wallpaper look). So, have you guys found a place on a track or a photo travel location which can act as a faux plain black/white backdrop?
 
There is a location in Deep Forest that you can get an almost perfectly white backdrop, though precisely where I do not know.

Here is where I took the above shot at Deep Forest.

You can probably achieve similar results at other points of that track and other tracks. 👍
 
There's a spot on the Nurburgring that will do it quite easily for you:

It's Ex-Muhle, the sharp uphill right-hander two turns before the back straight(ish) section. You'll get a feeling for where to best take the shot as you go through the turn 👍
 
Using the partial colour filter, the tunnel at highspeed ring is almost completely black (except the lights on the walls). I assume any similar tunnel might do the same thing.
 
did this on eiger short. The first turn right after the tunnel, all i did was take a photo of the car facing the inside of the turn. Before you snap the picture, look directly into the sky, let it auto adjust so that the exposure is really dark, then press L1 for ae lock. Find your car and it should have a black backdrop.

it was kinda hard to edit good lighting onto the actual vehicle though, my car actually looked really dull when i snapped the pic. Only thing that was edited in this pic was the brightness/contrast, sharpen, and some mild levels.
 
The tunnel at the High Speed Ring is a perfect place to take pictures with a black backdrop.

on top of the semi-sharp right uphill turn that about mid point of the ring. Found it while driving the track in in reverse (quite fun!)
