I love it. That's my critique.

Well the first thing I would critique is umm... I don't really have anything. They look pretty good to me. But what's up with the proper in the first pic?

#1 is okay, but the car's too close to the right hand side, and that green and white "Proper" is, uh...not helping...
#2 is a bit better, but still, crowding the right hand side.
#3 is AWESOME. LOVE the SCENE you show! Very solid!
#4 is affected by the background vehicles in a slightly negative way.

My $0.02, YMMV.

I shoot for an automotive blog called "All Things Proper".
It's pretty well known in the car culture scene, so this shot was just one to use to promote that blog.
A small advert to announce our Formula Drift coverage, if you will
