(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So it is time for the fourth Gran Turismo 5 Photo Competition! All of the entries last week were great, and I have a feeling this week's theme may turn some people away, but any pictures taken will look amazing guys, I promise.

So, the theme for this week is:

Backfire

You must capture your car in the process of down-shifting and shooting the flames out of the exhaust. Now, I know this is going to be hard to do, but keep at it, and your pictures will look amazing, I'm sure of it.

Here are some examples from GTPlanet (not from me, as I have only been able to do it once, and it wasn't the best):

So, rules are simple, the entry must be your own, there must be backfire in it. Other than that, I can't think of any other restrictions.

The prizes this week won't be as good, since the 1 million dollar limit cap, but here is what I am offering to the winner:


  • Dodge Charger Super Bee 426 Hemi '71
  • Caterham Seven Fireblade '02
  • RUF CTR2 '96

5 Gold Chrome chips


I tried to get three cars that are relatively rare from the UCD that are under 1 million. The list is also smaller as now the limit is one car per console per day, so it will take as many days to send as I offer cars, and I don't wanna spend weeks sending cars.

So, get those entries in guys! Get the best backfire shot you can take, I have a feeling there will be some good entries from people this week.

Since the PSN is down for maintenance I decided to have another go at getting a picture for this competition.

I finally got the game paused in exactly the right frame with a lovely backfire!
Lined up a nice angle and camera settings for the perfect picture!
Problem is, as Richard030 pointed out in another Thread, the 1.07 Update has messed with the Photo Mode!
The backfire flame was actually INSIDE the car in the finished photo!
The in game "world/car" co-ordinates seem to be a little off when it comes to Photo Mode.

Why can't Polyphony stop monkeying around! :\


i had a similar problem hence why i havnt entered one yet

its something u have u tinker with the settings, dont put on photo mode 2 and dont put the shutter speed on 8000. The minimum shutter speed is the best for flames, max shutter speed basically makes ur flame look like a King Kongs fart. Just tipping you guys, put all setting on minimum, well u can put the focus or blur on 2-3,4 atleast thats the best for me
