Do you have any photo of the rig you used ?
I am very interested in it.

Also try to do this where you have some less reflections. Also the water spots stick out pretty badly.

This is so easy, you might not beleive it. Set up your tripod like shown, about sundown when the light is soft, set the camera for about a 2 second shutter, and slowly push the car. The soft light and the moving car gives a great sense of speed and motion. I've done this with my lawn mower too.

The car should be real clean too! This was one of the first attempts.

What a great idea, can’t wait to try if out myself even if it means having to clean the car first, and best thing is you won’t get to see where my wife as scraped to alloys:mad:

Like the little peek-a-boo in the passengers door mirror that finishes it off nicely, well done:lol:

AS may I say that the first picture is great. It gave me the impression that the car was moving very fast. I may have to try this rig of yours out.
Thanks for sharing

Cool shot. Some water stains on the paintwork - finish off with a chamois.
