Amazing shots. What was you're main shutter speed? I'm never sure what I can get away with to still get the motion blur on the wheels. I think I used 1/80 for my recent auto-x pics, but I seem to have quite a few blurry pics.

I was using 1/320 for most places and it was borderline for wheel blur. 1/250 was better for background/wheel blur but you get less keepers. They were going a little faster than auto-x cars though
All of those are 1/320. They still have the exif data attached if you want to look at it.
Just take more pictures and delete the blurry ones when you get home. I took about 2700 over 3 days.
Edit: Since you're a photo guy... go here Opanda.com - Professional Photography Software (DigitalFilm, PowerExif, IExif, PhotoFilter) and install the opanda exif viewer and then install the browser plugin. Then you can right click > view exif data when you're looking at pictures on the internet.

2700 pics omg...
In raw, I think my 8gb card holds like 350 pics @ 12MP full frame.
If you have an IS lens, you can get away with longer shutter speeds, and the optical stabilization will help.

Everything was in raw, 8mpixel. I have 4 2GB cards and a hyperdrive to dump them to when they're all full. I think about 200-250 fit on a 2GB card.

This is true for objects that are not moving, IS stabilizes you not you're subject. IS mode 2 is designed for panning shots.

Yeah, thats one thing I don't have. I would have to dump them onto my laptop if I ran out of space. I may pick up another 8gb Extreme IV card soon, but thats if I start to do weddings.

I think the 4 Gig ultra 2's are you're best buy, not only the price, but also if you encounter an error with one card you don't have 7 other gig of pictures down the tubes.
