pmc_rules-png.87103


Please, ensure you read and understand all requirements for this competition. Failure to follow the rules may result in disqualification. If you have questions, start a convo with me.
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!
  • 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.
  • Absolutely no hybrid, hacked cars, or cars obtained through such means.
  • Mark your FINAL ENTRY clearly, with red text. On H2H weeks, which side, as well.
    Unsure how to? Copy and paste the following:
    [COLOR="Red"]FINAL ENTRY[/COLOR]
  • 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 30. Every fourth
    week, the poll will be H2H style: entries must choose a "team", leading to two 15-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!

Hey guys ^


PHOTOTRAVEL: Nope

Personally though I think this restriction might make it a little awkward for some :indiff:

Yeah that will make it hard for me who's system is still glitchy and I can't run online, so I guess I'll be trying to get lucky with the AI cars for the 10 minutes after putting in the game that I can load tracks after my system warms up with no game in it for 15 minutes... after that it's all photomode until the system sits for a few hours. :boggled:
 
120k or less :)

So, the total must be $120k or less? Or as close to $120k as possible?

I banned phototravel because it would be an obvious way to make this. And since PT locationas are so few and so bad in general (in my opinion), I've opted for allowing only race tracks :)
 
If any of you are struggling with this you can use split screen multiplayer and save the replay, though it's fun trying to keep cars from rolling backwards :lol: Juggling 2 controllers and all.

I personally like the challenge this brings.

Remember everyone you can use multiplayer offline for this... drive player 1 and park somewhere on the track then go get the player 2 car and drive out yo the same spot, compose and shoot ;)

Hold down the handbrake a couple seconds and it toggles on. 👍
 
I've done many competition photo shoots driving (with great difficulty) two cars with a DS3 in each hand - then I discovered I could drive quite well with one of the DS3 on the floor and using my feet - provided both cars are together on the track and braking, turning etc, at the same time it's not too difficult getting your brain around controlling two at once. Now that I've finally set up my G27 wheel properly it's much easier driving two at once - it's easy holding the DS3 in two hands with them resting on the wheel to be able to steer that as well. :)

FINAL ENTRY

14186752115_94054bd241.jpg

Street: Lotus Europa S.2 '68 ($30,000)
Track: KTM X-Bow Street '12 ($85,000)
Total: $15,000 and twice the women

-----
Are you serious about a '68 Europa as a daily driver? Dead serious. I could care less about safety or creature comforts, it's not like their is a family in the picture. I want a car that's fun to drive everyday, I'm all about the experience. IRL I drive an '80 Fiesta with a bunch of race parts in it, I really don't care how safe or comfortable or economical it is. That's just my personality. :cheers:
 
I might be able to get an entry in about 5 or 6 hours from now (still at work).
And yes, I'm on a break. :sly:
 
Thanks for keeping this open! 👍
FINAL ENTRY
Daily driver: Mazda RX8 = 30'000$ (approximately)
Track MONSTER: Nissan GT-R = 77'700$
Total = 107'700$
 
Home from work but now have visitors and unable to get a shoot in, will try later but no need to keep open just for me as I may not even get a chance yet.
 
I'm out then, stuck at work for some time......did some shots but I keep getting my deadlines confused with the CCCL and SS ones :dunce:

Best of luck to everyone 👍


In case this is still open.........if not then dis-regard

FINAL ENTRY





Scirocco = 98,250 cr incl upgrades (Track)
Vitz = 13,000 cr (Daily)
Total = 111,250 cr​
