Your panning technique is excellent. You have certainly captured the feeling of speed in those images.

The ute and the last one are my pick of the bunch.

Great shots! What was the shutter speed for the panned ones with the nicely blurred background?

From memory it was between 1/160 and 1/200. Takes lots of practice :)

Love the last one. Great shot for their advertising :)
Also the Ute shot is so sharp and crisp and "full of action" lovely. Well done.
