Update: I'm bumping this up because an update is coming in a few hours, and I realized I have to make up for not responding to all these comments! I also feel the need to explain my infrequent updates in the face of a good length of regular ones; a few people know I lost my memory cards for a bit, which definitely didn't help, but the past two weeks have seen me out of the house a lot with... a certain someone
. Real life takes priority... but my late-night time is split between sorting out music for the 'Pod and fiddling with GT. My hint for the update?

EKMatt - The car in question was a Monaro. The CRX tore huge chunks out of their gap when they hit turns, and even up to the 3rd gear change... but that's when the triple amount of torque made itself apparent

Zoxxy - Thanks to both of you
Sejtur - I agree, the XJ220 update was better than the CRX's. And since that comment a month ago, you've won a bunch of comps. I think you made a good choice!
Pain Killer - Thanks! I was waiting for an NSX to show for just that reason; the little brother kicking the crap out of the halo model
Fletch - I don't know if you meant the 4th of the "warm" batch, or of the "cool" batch. The former was problematic because of the pixelation in the foreground, but if that's the one you liked, than I'm happy!
Diabolical - I found myself feeling nearly the same when I did that update; the warmer portion had nicer angles, but I liked the bluer images. I'm trying to move away from this darker-image funk I've got myself into; I want to try something different, but so many other people have done some remarkably original things, I can't think of anything that's "new". I have an idea, but no clue how I'll pull it off...
Krame - Thank you
GT_HAVOK - The S2's a ball... I believe it had 180-200hp when I won it, iirc
Tabs - Thanks for dropping in! I don't know when, but I'll probably get along to doing another Wallpaper update within about two weeks; I have a lot of nice shots from the newer sets and also some leftover comp shots. Seoul was very hard to take shots at; not as hard as Ice Arena for me, though. As for the Jaguar, I'm really shocked you like it that much! I was hesitant about that update because of how badly Monaco and I get along, and because there's some bad rendering on that car. I'm still not sure if it's my best, but I have warmed up to it considerably. Thanks

Sejtur - I hadn't done a really far-away shot like that in a while, and never quite that dramatic, so it was interesting. Probably the most interesting angle available on that track
. The second-last shot is one of the spectators, and that was a complete accident of a shot, while the 6th shot, I really wanted to give the feeling of coming close to those curved inside walls. Unfortunately the exposure killed it a bit
Perfect Balance - C'mon, I only ever do a uniform look to a whole update (well, Wallpapers and multiple-car updates aside)
. It was the easiest way for me to make the car look aluminum in my eyes; it just seems like evening to me.
EKMatt - I appreciate your honesty

Kenny - Thanks as always, you two 👍
