A pan at a slow shutter speed has the advantage of guaranteed depth of field - but you have to pan with the car perfectly centered, as the driver is the spot people expect to be in focus. In this image, the perfect focus is slightly behind and below the helmet, but good enough to pass. The thing that makes the image interesting is how the metal grid fence behind the car was transformed. Shooting at 1/30th or slower shutter speeds means wasting a lot of film, but whatever turns out looks fast
