Here's a version with the halo cloned out.

Hmmm, I could clone the halo out. It's due to a shadow in the rear.
Don't know what caused it in front. I thought it contributed to the
sensation of motion, but perhaps it's distracting.
Well, different viewers see things differently, and I could easily
be an "outlier" from the curve. :-) When initially viewing the
photo, I interpreted it as something that'd been added in post,
which I now know to be wrong.
I'm not sure either what could have caused that effect. If the rest
wasn't well focused, I'd wonder if it came from a slight change in
the zoom setting on the lens. I think the Pz-1 cameras could do
that automatically with the Power Zoom lenses. On closer
inspection, it looks like motion blur from slight changes in panning
speed, but that's contradicted by the sharpness of the car's body
and the lack of similar halos on the "interior" parts of the car's
image.
I had a somewhat similar shot from the Petit le Mans this year. On
mine there were two well focused images just maybe 20 or 30 pixels
apart horizontally. I finally decided that what'd happened was I'd
had a "hitch" in my panning where I either sped up or slowed down
with relation to the car momentarily, but otherwise tracked it
accurately. I'll see if I can find it and post an excerpt.
