Automotive panning shots

My biggest challenge with the automotive racing shots is available sunlight. I HATE overcast days and trying to get as many sunlit shots in before sunset. I usually shoot on Aperture Priority at F2.8, with my 70-200mm lens. My "nail rate" is usually 75% depending on the weather/clouds and how soon the racers get out on the track....

Once the shutterspeed starts dropping it gets much much harder.

All three images are fantastic. How close to the cars were you?
