Nice theme Swiss. I have to work on this one. Hopefully this time I'll beat you.

 

[Swiss Legend]

ae86?

 

[tupacrulez]

non japanese RWD hatchbacks?
guess that limits things don't it?

 

[jinjinweiwei]

riiiight! that volvo van, car thingy. oh i think they are called a station wagon, but they the way the back opens awfully like the hatchbacks! sorry mate. I had little sugar rush there.

 

[tupacrulez]

meh. it's probably time to use the HPA R32 with a VCD. as close to a RWD hatch that I'd wanna drive as it gets, i s'pose.

 

[CyborgGT]

Non-Japanese, non-FF hatches:
- Audi A3, S3
- BMW 120i/d, M Coupe
- Ford Focus rally
- Lancia Delta HF/HF rally/S4 rally
- Peugeot 205 Turbo 16 rally/206 rally
- Renault Clio V6s

... I'll probably go with a Clio.

 

[tupacrulez]

the Clio is fugly.

maybe a Bimmer....although they're no nice thing to check out either.

LOL Mk1 Golf. I'll drift it somehow!

 

[Skyline49]

If only this was 2.0...

Maybe I can do a PMC version of my ineligible contest entry.

 

[tupacrulez]

as mentioned in the 2.0 comp, i may have to withdraw from this. it's a shame, because i had a really good replay of the mk1 golf saved.

Everyone forgot the Renault 5 turbo....

FINAL ENTRY

​

 

[Skyline49]

Nope. My 2.0 Competition photo that didn't meet the requirements (car too old) was a 5 Maxi Turbo.

Also, could you please upload your pictures with a larger size? I can't see any of the detail from the picture. I don't know whether your shot is good (though it initially looks better then you've done before.)

Also, Peter - beautiful shot. Where's the opposite lock?

 

[Peterram430]

Took the shot too early

I'll try again...



EDIT: New photo in original post.

 

[Skyline49]

Much better! I also like how the lighting is on the kerbs.

 

[Swiss Legend]

any more entries?
mine will follow shortly.

And just to let you all know...
This competition will cease after week 36...
That can of course change if there is a spike in entries, or if everyone still finds this interesting enough.
I'm thinking that all we really need is 2.0, un-edit, and PMC.

[CyborgGT]

I'll take a few cars out real quick and see what I can come up with.

*EDIT* - Final Entry

​

That was a pain to drift, even on N2's. I think I gave it too much power (I recovered perfectly from that spin-out, too!).

i can upload the pics in a bigger size, but the car being to old? explain

FINALENTRY
​

That's not 2.0?!?!?

 

[Swiss Legend]

Nope. But I have posted this shot "edited in my gallery"
All I did to this one is brightness/ contrast. That's why I picked this one, very little needed to be done. Here's my edited HPA shot with car cleanup. ( I hope you can tell the difference as well as I can.

btw cyborgGT: Awesome composition bro, I love the essence of drift that shot has.

It was a 90s theme and I forgot.

Final Entry

BMW 120i @ Nurburg​

 

[Skyline49]

Just wondering, can I call the Alpine A310 (iirc) a hatchback? It appears so, but I'd like to check first. I've got a really cool drift shot and I want to use it.

~Final Entry~

​

God, I did all that formatting without opening up the advanced editing screen. Perfect 1st try.

 

[David48]

lol. Cool avatar .gif skyline.

 

[Skyline49]

Thanks. I've still got a few kb left, so I'm going for transitions later.

edit: 👍 The entry shall stand

 

[Skyline49]

By that logic, the V6 Clio is also not a hatch. It has a mid engine and no significant cargo space except for in the front (okay, it does have a small net behind the seats >_>).
