Ahhh... just gotta say I liked the shot where the Evo and Impreza is facing eachother, really captures the theme "get ready for battle". IMO the best shot in the bunch^^
 
You know that picture with the X2010 and the go-kart? Excellent photo, very well set-up and composed but I think it breaks the rules of the competion because if you are only allowed to use editing that can be aplied to in game screen shots from a replay, that means that the replay contains an X2010 and a go-kart on track at the same time. However it is physically impossible to have a X2010 an go-kart on track in GT5 at the same time because the AI never drive X2010 so the photographer must of driven the X2010. however the only place the AI drive go-karts is in the go-kart only special event. No X2010s allowed. And the online can't be used either as go-karts can only be used when the room is set to go-kart only so the X2010 can't be used. I therefore believe that this photo must of been photoshoped. Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm all in the interest of fairness here.

Edit: noticed it is the arcade mode version of the X2010 (the overalls show it). Don't know if this helps.
 
If that's Photoshoped it's clearly well made and fooled 45 people that voted for it. :eek:

Now, with all seriousness, I think it is possible to do such a photo. I think I heard the owner said that he used the online function or the two player versus game mode. I don't really remember if joining a kart car and a X2010 in one race is impossible, but by judging by the picture integrity, it seems possible. ;)

Maybe he favorited the kart, and then made a 2-player battle against a X2010, put them in position and taken a photo. Just maybe?

No, seriously, I don't know if this is possible, I'm just asking.
 
Hmmm, only way I've got an X1 and kart together was in 2-player mode... did they add the ability to save replays for 2P races? Because if not, I don't know of another way either...
 
As far as I know the game design, I tend to agree with GT5_X2010. Actually it´s not possible as far as I know. However, if there is way possible way to create such a photography then I´ll congratulate the owner for all the votes he got with it. 👍

Maybe a little off topic but I got my F10 in a race with an Evo 5 http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5096/5582885799_70736fb597_b.jpg

(GT Rally special event with a Huge restriction on the engine power), and the kart can be taken in 2 player mode, the only cars not allowed in are the Ferrari F1 cars.
 
Nop, it's NOT edited, just confirmed it.

Well congratulations to the photographer then! 👍 Because that's an incredible shot even if you forget the selection of cars. Obviously that's done with slowest shutter speed (I think) and the cars must have had some speed to get the blur on the road. To have both cars in focus is pretty good because that camera position tends to give some Mode 1:ish blur to the car with slow shutter speed even if Mode 3 was used. And that's with one car in the photo. With two cars they must have been travelling with exactly the same speed and direction. And the choice of location is pretty good with uniform gray background. Where is that spot?
 
I confirmed the shot from the original one emailed to me moments ago, but from the additional information given to me, player versus mode was used. Also, to get that blur effect, the kart car was pushed by the X2010 and probably mode 3 was used. He can probably give more information once names are revealed.

A nice list of over-achievers :) Well done everyone. The next rounds should be filled with plenty of high quality shots - can't wait to see what you all come up with.
 
I was so worried that I wouldn't make it, but I barely did. (won the tiebreaker)

I'm gonna have to give 100% effort next round if I want to make it further!


Its a relief to get through I was worried because I was around 26th all the time just a few votes above the cut.

btw my shot was my second choice because I stupidly thought a one car shot with some out of focus lights in the background counted as a 2 cat shot, I managed to totally forget the part about a battle.


I like the one that you put in the poll better anyway.
 
Because of one single vote, I managed to pass the qualifying round.

Thank you for the votes. Chaparral's FTW!
 
Thanks for the votes everyone. And congrats to DiabolicalMask, hell of a nice pic there. Looking forward to the actual tournament!
 
No surprises as far as I can see, everyone I would expect to qualify :)

And of course, thanks to everyone voting for me. :)

I, in the other hand, see two big surprises in both poll, from those who didn't make it, jgda9rs in the PMC and TVR&Ferrari_Fan in the 2.0.
Anyway, congrats to all and good luck for the forthcoming round. 👍
 
And congrats to DiabolicalMask, hell of a nice pic there.

Thank you very much, sir. 👍

I, too, want to grab the opportunity to thank all the 57 people who voted on my photo. Amazing.

Great work, everyone. Here, and on 2.0. 👍
