A lot of PS work on this one - all subtle and with some great care.
1st off, this will probbaly get around 5.7ish, not a very exciting image to me, but if I find panning pretty hard so for that reason I am pleased.
Ps: all the usual levels sharpening etc, and also some buring on the top edge, some noise control done by hand (not in the dreaded NeatImage) a big heavy crop and some rotation to level it up. Also a big change on the windows - blacked out to give it a smoother more refined look. Quite a nice adjustment I feel.
Interested to see how this one fares..
1/60 by the way.

You've done a nice job here - car is well defined, background suitably motion blurred. Almost motor magazine quality, but maybe a teeny tiny tad bit over-exposed? Not sure - job well done anyway - 8.
Nice. Car and driver are well focused in this panning. It seems like the car is not moving at all! Composition is harmonious ... I like it that you had the car on one side and have some space in the other side to suggest that there is room for the car to move ... and fast! Good job
My top pic of the challenge. Clean, nice lines and the green sets off the silver/black and white beautifully. VW not as sharp as it could be but hey - I can't do any better!
