CLOSED: The Photomode Competition 053

[SlipZtrEm]

This week's theme in detail, brought to you by last week's winner, Giulietta73:

"Many races in the real world are won purely on strategy alone, where overtaking is done in the pit lane. I want to see a frantic, bustling pit lane with cars coming in, driving out - capture that pitstop window and show us the real action!!!
(One way to do this is to enter one of the Super Licence races, complete it up to the pitstops and then during the replay pause while you pass the busy pits - or change camera view to another car while you are in the pits. Watch out for the photomode boundaries in the pit entry/exit service roards!!) But it's got to be busy."


CARS: Any
LOCATIONS: Any
PHOTOTRAVEL: No
UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS: Pitlane action - anywhere in pits, multiple cars, men in suits etc!!

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!
• No post-GT6 editing, besides proportional resizing and rotating, is allowed.
• 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!

Difficult theme, due to the restrictions of cameras. This will be a challenge to us.
By the way, congrats to Giulietta73 on winning the Alfa Romeo competition.

Definitely a challenging theme!​

Thanks @Raphaele

What I used to do in GT5 was pause during the pit window of the Holiday seasonal at Sarthe - the one where the 2J dominated and millions of credits were farmed! Then I would change the view to a car outside the pits and walk to the pit exit. Then just get into position and zoom right on in.

Great entries so far - exactly what I'm looking for!!
The best wines are made from grapes that have had to struggle.👍

Thinking about accessible pit views in the Super class, Suzuka, Willow, Sarthe are good. Spa - possible if you stand at La Source and zoom in over the wall, Nurburgring 24hr - you should get a good view back along the pit exit...and possibly the pit entrance too. Apricot Hill should be doable.

Brands & Silverstone - could be tricky unless there's a default trackside camera high up.
Ascari - I think the pit guys are invisible, so no for that one!!

Hope that helps:tup:
