Very nice! At the speeds they were going, how hard was it to keep the car in focus at slow shutter speeds?

I was able to get a lot more of panning shots of the cars (like the one you highlighted) that i would show off to friends and family. But very few of them where sharp enough to be proud of. The HGP cars where much easier to photograph since they aren't as fast as the modern F1 cars. I found that shooting off as many photos as i could while looking down the side of the lens, not the viewfinder, helped me track the cars better too.
