Here are a few shots that I felt I did decent with. I know everyone has their preference when it comes to cropping, and shutter speed for blur.

Cool shots! Definitely colorful for sure! First two are my pics...really like the OOF cars in the background adding depth to the shots.

Not a motorsports photographer at all, but I like #1 for perspective of the car behind and the road. Too bad #3 got the other photographer.

Panning at racing is a tough venue to shoot but lots of fun. When you get a chance take a closer look at #4 and see what you think regarding sharpness.

I kind of like adding elements like that into some of photos. That's why I left it in there. Just like here, it just adds more to the story for me.

Yeah, it's definitely a learning curve, and I'm seeing the pros use 1/30th shutter speed and panning.

Do you mean that it's not sharp?
