THIS FORTNIGHT'S THEME
This week, we jump from the future to the past. Last winner @AngryKowski set this theme, let's hear what he has to say :
This fortnight's theme we are going back to the Goodwood circuit and compete in the famous Gtplanet Mini Cooper Trophy.
We are in the 60s/70s and this is an endurance racing series which only contains the little Mini Cooper racer from 1965. You have to create a livery for your own racing stable with a matching racing suit and a team-logo (you don't have to do an actual logo, it can be the name of the team written down). Your team-name has to have your gtplanet-username in it and you have to stick the logo with your user-made number/plate on your car somewhere. To make things a bit easier for everyone, you are only allowed to paint your helmet in one color, no decals.
You can use various sponsors too (they don't have to be time-accurate sponsors), but your design must be original, no replicas. It's the 60s/70s, you can and you should go wild and funky with your design.
There is no canvas too small for great ideas. Good luck!
CARS :
- Mini Cooper S '65
LIVERIES :
- Original liveries only, no replicas
UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS :
- You have to use an user-made team/logo.
- The car have to use your user name on a numberboard.
- The car can wear classic/old logos or current ones.
- The livery don’t have to be Sport Mode compatible.
- You have to create a matching suit.
- To ensure that everyone can enter, the helmet can only be painted to match the car/suit, but can't have decals or designs on it.

- One on the pits with the driver
- The main pictures have to include the driver too

- 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.
- Do not post "Honourable Mentions" or outtakes - just your Final Entry, that's all.
- Absolutely no entries which utilize edited/hacked file saves.
- Winner gets to choose the following Fortnight's theme.
- Winners cannot enter in their own theme!
- The Host may ask for the original image/livery and it must be submitted if so.
- It's recommended to share the original livery online (in-game) to prove it’s your work.

- Not sure how to submit your image? Here's a guide for both methods mentioned above.
