I have a problem with accelerateing my pan just befor I click, probably because I get all excited and cant wait to look at the result.
Composition is another hard aspect of this type of shot, i ussually fix it with a crop but am still working on trying to get it right in camera.

#3 just isn't a keeper. Nothing is sharp.
I would like to see #2 in portrait. I think it would look more dynamic..
Agreed.
Sanford. You have your phrases confused. "motion blur". Bad thing.
"panning". When done correctly, good thing.

I would suggest using Shutter Priority, 1/320 (depending upon available light of course), and decreasing your shutter speed gradually as your panning technique improves. Learning how to pan using 1/15 is nerve racking at best.
I can usually get a nice blur of the wheels when speeds approach 100+ with 1/320 but that's still a bit fast to get that nice background blur.
