Going through some of my older shots, I came across these..

These were shot in almost complete darkness, using my flash's red grid thing to get focus.

What else could I have done..? Turned the flash down a tad?

Thanks :)

Not an overly great picture, but just showing Jonny Milner was the only one getting some glowing action on the brakes..!

Manual focus?
 
Longer exposure and less flash would be my tip. I would also try to focus on the front of the car but I know that isn't always easy when shooting at night.
 
Longer than 1/60th and 1/80th..?

I get down to 1/25th in daylight! 1/10th gives more the natural light and you can cut back on the flash. It takes a lot of practice but it gets results.
