o_O There's an old guide? Can you link that here, and I'll teach you how to do it in the new TM2.
So, in TM2, there's a wonderful tool called "Shoot HQ" (I think). Anyway, it can be accessed directly through the Mediatracker, no photoshop skills required!
To do this, pick the replay you want and load it up to be edited. Go to the point in time where you want to take your screenshot, and then go to the top-left of the editor window. You should see what look like two little pieces of film, one with the letters AVI on it (for video), and BMP. The BMP, of course, is to shoot pictures. Before you click that, make sure you have the camera angle set to where you want to take your shot, of course. And, if you want motion blur, at least in my experience, whatever mediatracking you have set previously, you need to change it so that the camera is "anchored" on the car. When I forgot to do that, the motion blur effect blurred -everything-, not just the wheels. So I got a muddy mess.
Anyway go in to shoot your shot, turn all options on up to max to make everything pretty and then shoot your video. Good values I've found for making wheelspin look good without over-blurring? Set motion blur in your options (in the game itself) to .25, and set the screenshot duration to .005. However, if anybody has a better suggestion, I do welcome it as I'm new to this whole mediatracking and screenshot scene. I hope, though, that these tips can at least get you started

Thanks trackmaniack
I had a very small value for duration, something like 0.01 for this pic

Hi,
i suppose, you don´t know TStarGermany´s Tutorial on Mania Creative?
Please take a closer look: Make perfect screenshots of car skins / models
I think, teapot10101´s tip about the duration adds the right kick!
Regards!

Question for OP (or anyone else who knows, really) How do you get skidmarks to show up in the screenshot?
