Graphics Question?

I'm curious if it's just my flatscreen or the game. When in cockpit view sometimes dark areas appear almost like vertical hatch shading.., when the actual color should be solid. It's really noticeable when doing night racing. The interior view looks almost (washed) in this odd hatching over dark areas.

I know for sure it is not the blocky shadow issue. I'm using a 32" Vizio HD (1080p) hooked up via an HDMI chord. Anyone else notice this?
 
I had this, I got rid of most of it by turning the contrast right up to 90 on my t.v, the brightness was set to 45ish and I set the black level to high. There was still a slight problem so I went into the display options in GT5 and mine was set to anti flicker reduction so I set it to normal and it's now cured it. Now my display looks really bright though so I think originally the problem was with the game settings that I mentioned, have a play around with them there are only 3 settings, (normal, anti flicker, sharpness) and see if they help. Now I need to re setup my tv with my HD calibration disc I really hate doing that :lol:.
 
You might play with the Video Option in the PS3 System Menu.

However, a lot of TV's/displays just can't accurately show low black levels.
