full of action and speed, I'm looking for anger in two opposing cars!"

Well alright then, better get to it.

 

[ZEROX]

Umm, does Ford GT40 and Ford GT PD Prototype count?

 

[dennisp83]

Wow !! Great theme 👍 This will get very creative
Have some ideas already...

Congrats on the shot by the way, voted on your entry as well!!

 

[ashes619]

Very nice theme although if someone would be so kind to give us a list of the rival cars. I only know about the Mitsubishi and the Subaru and whatever has been listed above.

 

[Wallbreaker]

Hopefully PSN will be back this week so I can go online with a friend and have the two cars in the picture I want.

 

[Abraxas]

There is no list. Be creative. Ford GT40 vs GT PD Proto? Why not? M5 vs E55, Delta S4 vs RS200 Rally Car, Fiat 500 vs Mini, Pug 908 vs Audi R10, etc etc. If you have marvelous shot with Mitsu and Subbie, go for it, but be aware that I'm looking for creative duos.

Okay so they don't have to be rival rivals (if you get what I mean) but cars you could see being rivals. Well I am off to get some, hopefully, great pics 👍

 

[[Nor]MclarenF1]

Some rivals I can think of:

M5 vs. E55 AMG
Any combination of the classic racers (Ford Mark IV, Jaguar XJ13, Ferrari P330)
Ferrari F430 vs. Lamborghini Gallardo
Nissan Skyline vs. Toyota Supra
Ford Escort WRC vs. Lancia Delta WRC

 

[Abraxas]

Yeah, I'ts up to you. They can be typical rivals as Mitsu and subbie or M3 and C63, or stock vs race Pug 205 Evo 16 vs Pug 205 Turbo, or even hidden rivals like Audi R8 V10 vs Gallardo.

 

[bmxmitch]

or the Fiat 500 vs the Midget!!!!!!!

 

[Abraxas]

Old 500 vs Midget would be good and funny

[lbsf1]

Man, this is difficult, when I'm trying to think of some good cars all I get in my head is murray walker saying "It wouldn't be unreasonable to say that these 2 hate each other"

I thought of C4 WRC versus Focus WRC but couldn't really get a good shot of it. Also got some shots of GT, ZR1 and Viper and also 458, SLS and Gallardo but rejected them for this IS-F vs M3 match up picture.

That's what I tried with my C4/Focus shot. It didn't go as planned.

Lol.
But no worries, yours looks amazing.
It describe something if you ask me.
One speciality but different purposes.
One for off-road. One for race track.
I've yet to found a shoots that have meaning behind it but you've done it. 👍

Changed Final entry to the one on page 7.

[idiot]
Could someone answer this please: If I do want to have say Fiat 500 and Midget to appear in the same photo how do I actually do it? Number of combos have been listed here but is it actually possible to have those in the same race?
