Just to make it clear, I judge entries like this on which stands out the most, which shows the most creativity, which appears to have the most unified theme and composition, and which basically looks the best overall. I don't care if a shot is following the rules of composition if I feel the shot is otherwise lacking in the other areas.
Let's start with
jacoja:
Pow! That's what I think when I see this shot at full size. The bright lights and neon colors of the background and even the car bring a feeling of excitement and energy to the picture that really stands out.
As far as creativity, I'll just say I'm glad to see that you didn't focus on those annoying little light beams that flow around that whole setting, as I see in many other pictures. In that aspect, very original. The perfectly centered car however is a little boring perhaps, though I think the wide angle still helps it feel like more of a slant.
Like I said, I see a common theme here of pizazz and fun, and it really looks like it comes together. I don't see a problem with the colorful background. Considering the color of the 'Cuda, it would take a whole lot more color to make the background seem distracting.
As for
Moglet:
Smooth. A very sexy car cruising through the bamboo. Looks very relaxed yet still with a sense of speed and urgency. Very different from your opponent's, but not in a bad way.
Creativity, well, it seems a bit recycled. I feel like I've seen this type of blur and angle a thousand times by now, but I suppose there's not many choices in this setting. I will say that I didn't expect a shot like that to be taken at this setting. Usually it's a city of an actual track, so points for that.
This is where it kinda falls apart. Yeah it has rule of thirds, but where is the focal point?
For starters, the car is a very medium grey with low contrast between highlights and shadow. It just doesn't grab my attention. What does grab my attention is the background. Those bright green leaves and bright white sky, colors not found anywhere else in the picture, seem more distracting than any city backdrop. If you could have caught a reflection on the car, it may have been less so. Also, I can't avoid mentioning the spot just behind the car, in the left of the photo. That blur there: Sorry, it doesn't work. Grey-brown trees + blur = a muddy splotch with nothing interesting but still taking up a big chunk of the picture. Not to mention, I think the theme would have been more unified without or with less blur, giving it a more relaxed feel overall, though that would be limiting the options as far as editing.
Given all of that, I had to vote for jacoja. The shot is just more pleasant to look at than Moglet's, and I don't feel distracted by elements that just don't fit with the compostion. Overall, nice work to both, but jacoja's a clear winner to me. Sorry for the long post but I really want to share what I feel could really help both of you as artists. I strongly urge both of you to keep everyone's comments in mind to help you improve, so that when GT5 comes, we can have even more amazing shots to gawk at.
, We both have kind of the same way of judging an image.
I'm not seeing any green in the car and it's definitely not pastel. Which one of us needs to adjust his monitor? 
to everyone... and Mog for his brilliant entry.
