my eyes are bleeding!
I liked this guys NSX files in Los Angeles with his blown NSX getting walked by a dozen 1000hp cars, it was like his NSX was standing still on the straights and seeing 1000hp Vipers, Porches walk right by him and you can hear him swearing. It was so funny.. This car is nowhere near the speed of his NSX on the track so is this car really fast?
Go to his website. He has TONS of pictures with red being rendered as that shade of pink. IT'S NOT A PHOTOSHOP. It's his f'ed up camera.
From his website: "Also note that I finally updated my digital camera to a Nikon Coolpix 5000, so reds will look like reds instead of pink like that stupid Kodak DC260 that I was using."
Pink 360, for example.

There are several different NFR S2000s being pictured. The one with the RBRCHKN belongs to an active s2ki member, jzr. Hayashi also has an NFR s2k, the #55 without the wing.

Holy crap! If that is actually the case that IS one F'd up camera
I was concerned less with the color tone than I was with the distortion around the color changes (pink / black).
I was wrong in my original post, for a moment I thought it was the Silverstone car with the ugly (but functional) wing (isn't that Krazik's)?
It may in actuality be the camera, but that photo looks chopped, whether it is or isn't.
Had Dong Tran taken the time to explain that there was a problem with the camera instead of making smart ass remarks then the argument probably never would have started
Until I read the bit about the camera being jacked up I was about to call him totally color blind for trying to say that the color in the first pic looked anything like the colors in the pics he was posting

I mentioned it was the camera. The guy (Mr. Expert) just didn't believe me (or didn't read my post).
I hope he's not highly paid. I'd hate to have such an "expert" in my company.

If you are refering to me as "Mr. Expert": I would ask that you please be more mature and respectful in your posts in the future. I am, in fact, quite well compensated for my work in the field of graphic design and digital imaging, although that is absolutely no concern of yours.
The first image appeared to be heavily edited. It turns out that the artifacts in the image that make it appear to be a bad chop are actually the result of an unusually bad camera. So be it, my mistake. There is no need to call one's proficiency in their line of work into question. While this concept may be foreign to you, some people take their work very seriously and an attack on their professional abilities is tantamount to an attack on them personally.
