I like the framing with the jet in the background.
So in your experience, 1/250 is normally enough to give a blur to the wheels for a sense of motion? I have to work on my panning more. At 1/250, the cars are hit and miss in terms of sharpness for me.
That seems to be about the magic number. I have some at 1/320 that are not too bad, but still a bit frozen. As far hit and miss, me too. That's why I have a D200...so I can shoot 5/sec. and hope some come out.
The panning is hard, and takes practice. I've only done one race (Sebring this year), so lots to learn and practice. USGP is coming up in June.
Helps to have a lens with wicked fast AF. My 300/4 AF-S and Sigma 150/2.8 are good for that. My 18-200 VR not as good. I really want that 70-100 VR.
Or I could skip the races for a few years and save up for the 200-400/4 VR.
