Further explanation of the theme, provided by 725:

"Ever since GT3 I've loved the attention to detail that PD put into car mechanics. Although
it was quite easy to get the brake discs glowing back then, it's not so easy now. Take the
best pictures you can of some glowing brake discs on any track with any eligible car.
This doesn't mean the your picture needs to have just the wheel (unless you can do it well)
or a still shot using a high shutter speed , be creative I'll be looking for well
composed pics with plenty of detail.

Have fun hard braking!"

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!

  • No post-GT5 editing, besides proportionally resize and rotate, is allowed.
    [*]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 25. Every fourth
    week, the poll will be H2H style: entries must choose a "team", leading to two 12-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!

Final Entry

Click for full size.

Took this picture a LONG time ago, hope it can stack up to what everyone else enters! Won't be near my ps3 for one more week, so I can't take any new pictures.

Very nice! :)
Looks like a TRON promo pic :D:tup:
 
Nice entries guys keep them coming 👍

I don't think you can enter that bmxmitch if its been used in another comp, but I'm sure slipz will provide clarification. Its very good though 👍
 
Mitch - Sorry sir, you'll have to find a new shot: the rule applies to the "base" image, so to speak. The good news is, you have all week ;)

Alright! No surprise though (should have known it better, or read the rules:rolleyes:)
But I think I'm going to change right now, not sure if I find the time to do some new shots this week.

Thanks for the clarification slipz ;)
 
what is the best way to get glowing disc?

In my experience I've found that a heavy but equally fast car seems to do the trick. My HEP (above) and Maserati are pretty reliable for this :sly:
 
The akward moment when final entries looks eerily similar :nervous:
