Vicki & Wendy, Thanks for the comments.
It's exciting to watch. At Turn 3 there is a track crew to pick up the spills that fail to make the turn. While I was there it started to rain and things were cut short although I did get some shots of a bike on the wet track, they are in my gallery.- Mike #2481135

Kristy, Thank you, This was one of my first attempts at panning that seemed to work. #2485388

Awesome capture and effects, Mike! I have never tried panning. You have inspired me to want to give it a try. Now I just have to find a race event!! #2524201

Ronald, Thank you. I had best results when using Continuous shooting mode while panning, It gave me a better chance of a good image, although I still had a lot that ended up deleted.-Mike #2525143

Thanks JD, I was fortunate enough to be able to obtain a "Photo pass"(after being denied due to lack of credentials)
If not for the pass I would have had a chain link fence between me and the track. -Mike #2582235
