#3 is my fav.You have perfected the pan effect, were you using a tripod for those pan shots?

I really enjoyed these, especially #3. The sense of speed and lighting looks good. The camera angle also compliments the drifting discipline I think. I imagine you could sell your shot to the owner!

I was a little distracted by the line across #1. Was it a telegraph wire or something? The dusk sunlight hitting the smoke looks great, though.

Also, that white tyre wall in #4 limits your cropping options, IMHO.

I've been looking for some motor sport event here to practice getting shots like these. I'll be happy if they are half as sharp as yours. I'm off to a moped race (!) so theslower panning might be a good intro!

The first shots were great, but for the "under the hood shots", you may want to go wide and get up close from a lower angle, to make it more dramatic. It might work out :)
