Hi Robert,
The panning is some of the best I have seen here. The details in the car right down to the windshield whipper & communications antena are fantastic. The sence of speed is also well detailed in the wheels. The colors are nice and natural looking, the image is clean, sharp & well framed. The one thing imo that takes a bit from the image is it's background. Not that it's bad mind you, it just doesn't do the image the justice it is do.

Bit tighter crop, in my opinion, from top and bottom would have been better.
