Theme:
Course---Special Stage Route 5
Car---Mazda RX-7 FC (Any except for the the Falken tuner FC)
Modifications---new wheels, no wing, and whatever you wanna do under the hood
Action---drifting

Muahahahahahahaha....................... :D

[Quiggs]

I can tell already, my picture's going to be 'drifting' right before it gets away from me and I spin out. At least I'll have lots of angle. :)

[NuclearCrap]

Ok, one more rule then, the photo must show you exiting the corner by drifting and must have smoke seen. Muahahahahaa.........

well here's my entry....hope you guys like it.(tho you might not like the rims, i couldn't get it to show as if they were runnin)

Damn, a black RX7 with black wheels looks nice but I just realised that you can't see it in there (because it's dark). :(
So I'll have to come up with some another colors...

I didn't mean to have photos of FCs that look like they're about to crash..............but you can do whatever you want as long as it's in drifting position..............*sighs* :(

Trust me, a white FC would make you the finest photos :) , but probably not with the gold 3-spoke wheels...............

One more request, can you guys just make your FC look like it's doing an actual drift but not like it's gonna crash or something?

[TheOne]

hey i wasn't about to crash:(, i was about to steer to the other corner, which was easy since the wheels were allready spinning.(this was i believe in 2nd gear....with little help of nitrous)

oh yeh, me dunno why i chose those wheels, i was gonna choose others, but i first bought those to see the look....then i forgot to buy the other wheels.(then i took the pic....and found out)

[Rockefella]

Your guidelines are quite anal, but ok. I'll get to work, and come back w/ a masterpiece.

Uhhh........I can tell that you steered too much, especially when you're in second gear, plus you don't have enough space to steer right, which you would skid too much and lose control, so even if you didn't crash, you probably did went into a spin or a complete stop. But if you did manage to steer back, you still wouldn't gain enough speed to drift the next corner because it's the corner right after that left that you took. :cool: Try some high speed drifting.

[TheOne]

oh no i couldn't get the next corner to keep drifting, by that time the drifting was done,lol.

[twinspark]

Here you go, the best of the few dozens I took.

Yeah, it's kinda hard if you don't practice much. I'm gonna post mine as late as I can because some settings need to be perfect before I start photoshooting, this FC is kinda hard to tune to perfection. I donno why I have no problem with F1s at all. I just need to practice on drifting corners like the Corkscrew on Laguna Seca and some other ones with big elevation changes. It's quite hard to time it right so I can have enough space to steer the car back to drift the car in another corner right after one. ;)

Sorry again, I had to make the pic smaller than 800x600 so I could upload. :o

[Rockefella]

Voting should be in a few hours. I'll go transfer my picture.

[Rockefella]
