Nice wheels.... however, because the wheels aren't spinning, it looks like there is a HUGE fat chick sitting in the drivers side and tilting the car over...

Hit that baby with photoshop and add some smoke and wheel spin!!

Man that grass is soo green..... I HATE WINTER!!!!!

Yeah, slower shutter speed should make it better. using a slow shutter speed and panning with the car as it passes gives one a nice "speed" effect.
I can't tell for sure but it looks like the front of the car is a little soft. Actually, I think EVERYTHING is a little too soft.
I would have cropped out that light pole but it could have given the effect that the car's running off the right side of the photo...not good. It's better to give the car some place to go.
I might also try to chop in a couple cones in to make one aware that you're at an autocross.

On the bright side, the car looks fantastic and it's a better photo than I have of MY car autocrossing...of course, it's hard to shoot and trail-brake at one time
