Here are some shots from the 2011 Jefferson 500 at Summit Point Motorsports Park in West Virginia last weekend. This was my first time out with my new Sigma 150-500. The light was not that great, there was a little rain here and there. C&C welcome.

Nice little effect in the last one, good idea.

Looks like there are a lot of good angles at this facility.

Suggestion for your last image: Reverse the effect. Put the "ghost" of past glory in the reflection. B&W with some grain, scratches, etc. Great idea to use the puddle!

Good suggestion, now that you mention that it would make more sense to see the "older" type image in a reflection apposed to vise versa.

Almost like a glimpse into the history of the car through the puddle.

Thanks for the comments. That is a good idea. I might give that a try. I have a few other shot of cars around that puddle.
