Some good angles here for captures, I think my favourite is either the Alfa's or the SEAT's...always good to try and get several cars in the shot to make it look action packed.

What equipment are you using and also post processing work are you doing? Reason I ask is that it looks like these shots could do with a bit of a contrast and saturation boost to make them pop. Also have they been saved for web as this strips the colours sometimes?

I have not upgraded to a DSLR yet so all were taken on a Panasonic DMC FZ5. Fortunately the 12 x zoom helps. The light was constantly changing so I cheated as regards to settings and left the camera on Panning mode alot of the time. Unfortunately there was some fencing to my left which prevented me from getting a full on side shot of the cars. All that has been done to photos is a bit of cropping and the brightness reduced as this helped sharpen the image.
For some reason I could not get a decent blurr on the Clios wheels. Not sure if this was somthing to do with the wheel design or just me. Other cars came out better.
