finally got to look at some of the pics I took on friday, tried to get a couple good shots and heres what I turned out with....C & C welcome...photoshopped the 1st 2 pics with a blur effect, was using 1/320 shutter speeds on a bright day, 3rd was converted to black/white
(sorry about the 1st photos size, I wanted it to be big enough for you guys to see and 800 x whatever just wasnt cutting it so I upped it to 1000 as its biggest side)

I like them all but number 2 is also my favorite! Great work.

I think #2 could be a great picture, but I am distracted with the way the blur tool is applied. The depth of field would have had the guard rail sharp at a much different spot. (farther from the viewer, assuming you want the car sharp) Otherwise I like the idea, but in it's current state it just looks too PS'd for me.

I am lost on #1. Can you post the orignal for me? How far out was the car in that shot? Tires look like 200-250mph but the blur doesn't match. I wanna figure this out.
