Next we culled the top 13 down to a top 3. We couldn’t agree on the 3 so it ended up being 4.
4th Place is the Cyber Evo Mechanic (or aero guy) by Jeff Naeyaert from MotoIQ.
The judges were divided over this shot. Some were passionate about the human element which made it more emotional than the other shots.
Sadly there’s no prize for fourth.

Congratulations to Matthew Everingham for this shot of the Red Brick Racing Evo. You win $1000 for second place. This is not a photogenic car. We received a lot of entries featuring this car but none made finalist except this one.

Congratulations to Luke Hobbs for this shot of the RE Amemiya RX7. You win $1500 first prize. This was by far the most popular car with the photographers. Luke’s shot was unanimously the favourite.
