Nice pics!

 

Thanks for all the kind words on the pictures everyone I'm glad you liked them. We're always up for more RX-8s (and Mazdas in general) to come hang out.

 

*cough* *cough* It is a JGTC Hybrid, but yes it has a Toyota engine and transmission

 

The Saturday 9/16 Night Cruise produced some great photos. Sorry, no RX8's (including myself) were able to attend.



This one is taken along the north side of the Chicago River.

 

how do you make the orange sky effect with photoshop? any help would be nice

 

those are some awesome pics kind of gives me a sense of peace, i like how the cars are shiny and in their colours

 

I don't have a hand in the picture processing. Look up member "Phlypside" and email him with your questions. He doesn't have a RX8, so he doesn't come here often.
The only way to get these pictures are to do it very late, after 12:00.

 

JGTCA?
Sounds like F1(2), WRCA, HIN-R, or TOYOTAZ
wtf

Do the JGTCA.com people realize that the GT in JGTC is referring to real race cars... not just a street car with some mods???

-hS

 

JGTCA stands for Japanize Grand Touring Cars of America. I believe they were using that before the racing series started and I don't believe that they are using JGTC anymore.

 

david:

No photoshoppery needed, that's good ole' cheap but effective sodium lamp light. It's all over Chicago. Sometimes it can be fun, but others it can be annoying (wreaks sheer havoc on orange and red cars).

GT stands for "Grand Touring" we explain the concept over here:
http://jgtca.com/index.php?showtopic=2

The naming is merely coinicidental (especially since many of the types of cars in the club are campaigned in SuperGT) and now any comparison to SuperGT is really irrelevant. (There *was* a racing series called JGTC before but it has been SuperGT for a few years now.) Now as far as "street car with some mods", look up what homologation means to folks in WRC and SuperGT or even certain classes of LeMans sometime

JGTCA = Japanese Grand Touring Cars of America... sooo JGTCA is merely an acronym. We've since expanded to include RWD and AWD cars of all types (e.g. American and European) and are a part of the NOTFWD.com club.
