    Tip, try a longer shutter speed (1/60 ish) and pan with the car. Takes a bit of practice but makes the car stand out a lot more. You'll only get like 1/10 keepers but the keepers will make it worth it

    Yup thats exactly what it should do. Background should blur and car should be sharp. Takes a while to master though.

    yea drop shutter speed as low as you can and follow the car, this will blur the background and the wheels. If you go down to something like 1/20 you'll be lucky to get 1/10 good ones!!
