This week's theme as brought to you by GPR:

Time for some track day fun with a zippy little German in Germany. Fast and fun is the name of this game so I'd like to see moving shots only no stills or poses. Clean driving or messy action it's all good.


CAR: Volkswagen Scirocco R
LOCATION: Nurburgring GP/F
PHOTOTRAVEL: Nope
UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS: Must be a motion shot so get the speed up and the shutter down. ;)

Please, ensure you read and understand all requirements for this competition. Failure to follow
the rules may result in disqualification. If you have questions, ask me via a Conversation.
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.
  • Absolutely no hybrid, hacked cars, or cars obtained through such means.
  • Mark your FINAL ENTRY clearly, with red text.
  • 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.
  • 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!

you have to enter the bbcode your self now you put [colour=type the colour here]FINAL ENTRY[/colour] 👍
Close, but you must spell colour the American way - color. ;)

You can copy and paste this [color=Red]FINAL ENTRY[/color] it will look like this... FINAL ENTRY

Oh and you must use a thumbnail or preview image of no more than 500px on the longest side and link it to the fullsize image. If just using the GTPlanet image hosting you need to use the thumbnail option which is a little small but at least will be acceptable.

I am not currently at a computer that I can post the picture again and I won't be for a couple days. Is my entry still valid? Fist time trying the photomode competitions
 
Ordinarily no, but I could make an exception this one time since you have explained how you may be unable to fix it before the comp closes. Of course if you do get the opportunity it will be best to do so. Nice to have you join us in the photomode comps by the way. 👍 :)
 
Ok chaps, I've been pretty busy and haven't checked this out for a while. Got to say there's some super entries, well done everyone. 👍 And good luck to the poll makers.
