Thanks Rooz, here are:

The cropped version:

And another race as they were passing by:

I only took the EF24-105mm and I had the zoom at 105 mm. Next time I will take the 70-200, which may be a better lens for this.

I like the cropped version, however would crop just above the light poles, rather than through them.

its nice light in these images, possibly using slower shutter and panning may have helped create some motion and drama within the image.

I like the last image :)

Thank you all for your comments. I agree with you Biggerry I did not like the last image initially, but the more I look at it the more I like it.
