Sure, John, that'll work, but it will yield a very generic photo. The idea of
showing motion throughout the image, blurred subjects, is another approach, as is
the "practice, practice, practice" approach. Different strokes for different
folks ... Arnie gets kudos for trying something that's a little different for
him. And damn it, flash changes the mood and the feel of the photograph.

If you use the same slow shutter speed (1/4), and trailing-curtain-sync flash
(with -1 stop of flash exposure compensation) you'll still get all the trails
of lights, etc., you see in your original photograph, but the detail on the
car will look much better. Try it, if you've got a flash that will do that.
