Default Truck draggin night shot tips?

So this past weekend my friend asked me to shoot him dragging his truck. Of course it puts on a better showing at night. I have shot rolling shots before, but this was the first at night. I had a steady mount for the camera, but the photos still came our blurry. I think that I was using a 1/20 or 1/30 speed. I was able to make a collage to draw attention away from the OOF shots.

What I am getting at is there anyone out there that shoots this type of subject, and have any tips for me. I was thinking about grabbing a set of off road lights and mounting them to my roof rack to shine on the truck so that I could shoot a faster shutter speed.
