Some motion shots

Took some final shots today with my friends cars before theres snow on the ground... It would have been better if we went out earlier bc there wasn't as much light as i wanted.

Dark inspire.... It really depends on the situation (lighting, how fast you are traveling).... But more or less, just play with your shutter speed until your wheel spokes are blurred, but the car is still clear. Assuming you're on autofocus, keep a constant distance between the cars from the time you focus to the time you take the shot. Also, like I said, you really need as much light as you can get in this situation.
Oh, one more tip... take the pics near the max focal length of your lens so that you have a small depth of field (so that there is a drastic contrast between the car and the background).

big mike... Actually, they are ssr comps (btw, he is getting springs installed very soon to get rid of the huge wheelgap)
