Most of the battle is finding good angles and locations to view cars without a fence in the way. Second major factor is keeping the cars in frame.

One good step is to purchase a paddock pass, if available, to get shots of cars in the garage area. If you do that, remember the cars have the right of way in the paddock, and if you get run over, it's your fault. Also be aware that a paddock pass gets you nowhere the race pits, which is an area to avoid unless you're very familiar with race tracks.
