As an aside, there's a good example of telephoto 'compression' or foreshortening in this thread. If you look at StevePPP's current profile pic, it's a 3/4 view of the front and offside of his car on the Karussel. Notice how, despite the New Age cars being longer and taller than classics, Steve's car has almost got classic-like dimensions in this pic. Steve's morettes contribute, but to my eyes at least, you could glance at the pic and see a well-sorted classic. Moreover, the Karussel is quite a big, wide-open place, and the 'tog will have been shooting from the far side (with a mahoosive telephoto lens, probably using a monopod to stabilise). See how there's very little background visible, and the ramps behind look massive. These effects are present in Ginola's profile pic too, with the kerbs behind the car. Both are really dramatic shots, and emphasise how telephoto shots can work really well.

There's a good wide-angle shot too in NL03Scoob's profile, compare how the blob-eye shape is presented so differently to Ginola's pic above, the choice of zoom setting makes the front of the car leap out, making the headlights and grill really prominent. In a good way it's very in-your-face and makes an interesting comparison with the other style.
