By far the best motion panning shot I got. I guess Broken would be easier but I really want to enter Motion Panning.. can't wait to see what others have captured. If I get over 4 I'm happy. Had fun.
Shot in shutter priority mode.

sorry, but your shutter was a bit to quick. except for the slight blur of the tire, this car would be sitting still. you may have achieved something that meets the challenge, but, all the same, it doesn't really grab me.
Nice sharp photo of the car however the background could do with a lot more blur as it almost looks like the car is just parked up. I read somewhere that 1/15sec is a good setting to achieve panning techniques
If there's any motion blur in this photo it's so slight that I can't detect it, other than in the wheels of the car. Also, the highlights in the snow are blown. Maybe a tighter aperture and a slower shutter speed would have helped. If that's as small as your aperture will go, maybe try a neutral density filter?
The wheels appear to convey the movement of the car but the relative sharpness of the background almost suggests that it wasn't moving very fast or that a fast shutter speed was used.
In terms of composition I would have preferred to see the whole of the front of the car.
The car is perfectly crisp, however, the background really isn't "moving" very much with respect to the car. You can see some movement in the wheel, but not too much. I think this needed a longer shutter to make the motion more noticeable.
