Hi George, i have to admit to the daft thing of staying in one spot. As both yourself and Simon pointed out and makes perfect sense, Move around.
Will try to put the advice i have received to good use next time out. And thanks for looking and taking the time to comment.

Ok. #2 I agree on the spectators. I need to pay more attention to whats in the background.
#4 apart from cropping and bw conversion that's it. The nose on the glass tower is how it came out in the photo. I used a big stopper #10 so that the cars would remain sharp while people moving around would blur. White balance or something went wrong though and the image came out kind of blue. Hence the conversion.
I will post the unedited version in a few mins and you might be able to tell me what happened.
And I will try a colour pop to see how it looks.
Thanks for your cc guys.
Derek

You have been a minefield of advice and ideas.
Lots for me to think about and do before my next attempt.
You have taken some really cracking shots.
I am looking forward to trying to put your ideas into action at the next outing. (i think its a truck day) Im sure that will throw up some other issues
Thanks again
Derek

These look super to me. Great sense of speed and movement
I like #3 the best.
