Please, ensure you read and understand all requirements for this competition. Failure to follow
the rules may result in disqualification. If you have questions, send me a Private Message.
This Thread will answer many possible questions you may have.

  • It is recommended you host your image on ImageShack, Photobucket, or Flickr.
  • Not sure how to post a thumbnail or preview image? Read this sticky!
  • Please use a clickable-preview to full-size, not a separate text link for it;
    it makes poll creation much easier!

  • One entry per user. It must be your own work, and never previously used in a comp.
  • Do not ask other users to choose your entry.
  • Mark your FINAL ENTRY clearly, with red text. On H2H weeks, which side, as well.
  • You may change your entry once. Do it clearly; edit out your previous entry, and
    either post the new one in a new reply, or in place of the original.
  • When submitting, use either a thumbnail or a preview image, linked to the full-sizer.
  • Preview images can not exceed 500 pixels in either direction.
  • A preview image must be representative of the full-size image. Do not add effects to it.
  • Do not post "Honourable Mentions" or outtakes - just your Final Entry, that's all.
  • Winner gets to choose the following week's theme, as well as the Top 15. Every fourth
    week, the poll will be H2H style: entries must choose a "team", leading to two 8-picture,
    4-day polls. The winners from each faces off in a final 48 hour poll.
  • Winners cannot enter in their own theme!
  • The Host may ask for the original image and it must be submitted if so.
    It's recommended to save the original image (preferably in-game) until week's ends.
Failure to follow these rules will result in ignored entries and/or disqualification!

  • Adjust brightness, contrast, exposure, shadow/highlights.
  • Enhance shadows or highlights (dodge and burn tools in Photoshop, for example).

Set one of the cars to "favourite" go in to Arcade then single race and keep entering until you're against the other car.

Yup, pretty much a revenge theme for all the themes Gtuned made for me. :p

But I dont want to punish you guys, I want to challenge y'all.
No easypeasy pony shoots this week. :D

But I'm sure this H2H poll is going to be EPIC! We never had so many active and good photographer like it is now. Even mog came back with a blast!

Cant wait to see where this week is going. I expect a lot! :sly:
 
This. Is my kind of theme! Mitch, you are now god for the time being. :sly:
 
Well...I tried a second round with much greater success. Now I just need to edit it and post it. But I kindof wish there was an option in the game to select a car with an AI that you could race against head to head.
 
I think I'm going to struggle with this one! I've got to get my girlfriend to drive the other car, the AI aren't good enough! :p
 
FINAL ENTRY


Click for lightbox

Tried to go for a car chase scene here, didn't really work :lol:

May well be changed later in the week..​
 
I love it 458, you've nailed the car chase feeling! 👍 I love your logo too, it makes me wish mine was more modern!
