great write up but im a little confused on those rig shots...by looking at it i gathered the camera was set up to the lower right front side of the car facing the car but those shots that followed look like they were taken by someone else, instead of the rig, driving next to the car...?

i went out last night with some friends of mine and took some pics of them riding bikes. this may not be much help because i can't remember what all settings i had the camera on. i know i had the iso set to 800, using the A setting(aperature I assume) , and the f was all over the place but for the ones below i think it was on 6.0 - 11.0. my question is what can i do as far as setting up the camera to get these shots to come out with less blur and possibly reduce the iso for a clearer picture. i was also using a vivitar 285hv on the hotshoe. PS this was all done without a tripod(i do have one i just didn't use it)
too much flash, but not a bad picture
iso 800, fstop aprox 11, exp -2 i think
same as above except the fstop was 7 or so
iso 800, fstop7.1 or 6.3 i can't remember exactly and i wanna say the exp was -3

i could be wrong and didn't think about it until now, but should i be using the s (is this shutter speed?) setting and working with the setting in that mode?

whoa that is awesome. thanks man. we went out again last night and i tried it on the S priority which worked out a great deal better. i set the camera shutter speed to 1/40th and it worked out great. any ideas on how i could make these pics better(just the photography not photoshop) please voice them.

use a tripod. if you dont it wont work out well. you might be able to pull it off with vibration reduction lens at 2.8 or wider and a pretty high ISO but then things will get noisy.
