These are all good. #2 is quite strong. In the others, the background is distracting enough they lose a bit of that "punch."

Normally, I like black and white. In the "Street" forum I post a lot of
black and whites, and I've posted some in this forum.

Your processing is good, but in all but #2 the background doesn't
allow the subject to pop out. #2 is very good, though.

The captures in all are very good with the vehicle suspended
in the air.

+1.

I think the images suffer from too much non subject contrast within the frame.

I shoot off road dirt and I prefer cropping tight especially on B&W's (in your face tight)

You might like to try tight crops (I've been accused of cropping too tight... hmmm)
