Are there any particular tips on photographing motor racing? What sort of shutter speed should I use?

First of all you have to be familiar with the panning technique, and you can use AI Servo focusing mode. For exposure you should set it manually, for the reflections off the cars will confuse the exposure meter which leads to under-exposure. If you want to freeze the action, you can use 1/1000s or 1/2000s, but the image would look somewhat bland. Using the panning method to get the object sharply recorded against a blurred background, so as to give the impression of movement, you can use shutter speeds between 1/60s and 1/250s, depending on the lens; generally speaking, the longer the focal length, the faster the shutter speed; if you use a very wide lens you can even use a speed as slow as 1/30s.
