Wanted: Ditch Hooking Photo
September 03, 2009 02:32PM
Hey guys I have use for a photo of some extreme ditch hooking in action. Most preferably of the rwd variety.

I have done some searching on the interwebs and haven't been all that successful. In my mind I am picturing perhaps a shot from the apex, nose in the ditch, with large clouds of dust in the background. The clouds can be added later.

Without giving too much away this would be converted to monochrome and line and used on t-shirts.

So if you've got an image that you think might fit the bill, and don't have a problem with it being used for non-profit, promo purposes, please post em up.

If I pick your image i'll send you a couple of the finished product.

Thanks
Pat

Well here's an Eklund that really drives, Per Eklund from Arvika in Varmland.




This is good but alas it's a fuckin blue Sub-a-rat



More later

OK no ditch but it is classic inside line and sideways.

No ditch and at a rallycross, but plenty of dirt...

This is probably the reverse of ditch hooking technically. Oh and it's a Subaru.

Thanks guys.
Here are few that I have found in my quest

Not really in the ditch but nice opposite lock and photoshop does amazing things



These two are amazing examples of ditch hooking, too bad they are awd





I like grant's first pic and especially John's escort one as it goes with the old school feel I'm going for.

Here's my quick photoshop job. I'll try harder if you want, but I'm not sure how promising it can be...

Are you supposed to hook with the INSIDE tires?

This isn't my picture, so you don't really have permission to use it. But I like it.
