CLOSED: The Photomode Competition 143

[SlipZtrEm]

Further explanation of the theme, provided by Aiden:

"Everyone's been moaning about how ugly and stupid the S2000 GT1 Turbo is. Time to put your money where your mouth is. Go to the Tuner Grand Prix and capture the moment when you pass or defend from the S2000. Here's the catch, your car must be a road car, yes it can be tuned but the power must be about 480HP or less. Please state the amount of power your car has on the bottom of your image."


CARS: Any road car
LOCATIONS: Any in the Tuner Grand Prix
PHOTOTRAVEL: No
UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS: Car must be 480hp or less.

Please, ensure you read and understand all requirements for this competition. Failure to follow
the rules may result in disqualification. If you have questions, send me a Private Message.
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-GT5 editing, besides proportionally resize and rotate, 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.
  [*]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 25. Every fourth
  week, the poll will be H2H style: entries must choose a "team", leading to two 12-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!

Competition News:

Internet was out at the house for the day, which was mightily frustrating. Sorry folks! Polls will be up later today! As for this week's theme, just to be completely clear for everyone; no, you don't need to edit your photos to add your car's horse-corral; just type it below, thanks

Oh if only Hybrids were an option... I have a few cars that fit the criteria to whoop that pesky GT1

 

[AidenNewman888]

Thank you Slipz for clearing that mistake. And no hybrids please, this is a test of your skill.

The only locations I can find are Laguna Seca and the Nurburgring (and even then I'm not so sure about the Nurb.)
I searched Tuner Grand Prix in Google and found lots of info on Global Tuner Grand Prix. Is this the right one Aiden?

The Tuner Grand Prix I'm talking about is in the game. A-spec, the Expert level section.

 

[Giulietta73]

Thanks Aiden! Blonde moment.

"... and capture the moment when you pass or defend from the S2000...."

I think your actual pic doesn't fit into the theme, jus1029.

 

[jus1029]

I think we need wait for Aiden for some answers.

 

[AidenNewman888]

I think we need wait for Aiden for some answers.

You have to pass or hold off the S2000 GT1 Turbo, so your car and the S2000 must be in the shot

 

[jus1029]

Why must it be an S2000?
I'll change my entry tomorrow morning.

FINAL ENTRY

424 BHP - won't go much higher than that. Maxing turn 1 was key to getting past and holding up that 2000GT:tup:​

 

[Eric Demory]

Final Entry

478 hp

This absence from GT5 is not helpful for my photography skills. ​

 

[OtakuTaikun]

FINAL ENTRY

418 horsepowers of rage chasing down that incredibly fast AP2.Bonus points for the S2K family?​

 

[Nato_777]

FINAL ENTRY



350hp FRS

Started 1 place ahead of the S2000 and managed to hold it off almost the entire race (passed me twice but I retook it) and take the win. ​

 

[Kodje]

Was not a glory lap... I haven't choose the good car, but I would like to shoot this one... Many attempt to have the S2000 far away in the grid and just keep it behind me until this corner... Too much time on the photomode these last months and not enough to ride... I'm clearly rusted

Final Entry



480 hp​

Final Entry



The Honda NSX has 334 hp at 501pp. The S2000 GT1 Turbo started one spot behind me, I managed to keep him behind me for most of the race (except on the straights). This was the last lap were I took the photo, but I spun out heading into to the first turn, and rage quit. ​

I'm a bit late to close, hectic zombies game on Black Ops 2.

Though the comp is closed, I'll give jus1029 a chance to replace his image.

It's a good picture, sucks that you can't make it in.

 

[xande1959]

:tup:This picture represents vitoria from end to end

 

[Eric Demory]

Any explanation to your little mis-post xande?

 

[AidenNewman888]

jus1029 has not made it.....yeah xande, where's the s2000 in your picture?

 

[jus1029]

Yeah, I decline my participation.

My < 480hp cars cannot catch up to the S2000 that I raged and though of doing the other comps.
I made a shot, but it was an AEM S2000.

It's not just the cars, it's the driver's performance.
