Then why is it perfectly sharp with the livery? The writing on the side
is perfect.


Because the Circle of Confusion is small enough?

Did Paul use flash?

Could be. It appears to be lit from in front of the car. Looks like a shadow behind rear of the car. Big soft box camera left?

Perhaps that darker gray streak on the ground is a pneumatic trigger like service stations used to use to ring a bell when you drove in; blurred by the panning.

Wouldn't take much to rig a switch to trip the strobe when the front tires hit it and the strobe would fire when the car was exactly in that position, while dragging the shutter.

Blur front and rear is from the panning & the sharp image is from the strobe.



If he did it might be a similar effect as this:
