Roger, a rolling stone gathers no moss, but a spinning wheel gathers
plenty of dust, and blurred detail .

There are none so blind as he who will not see (that the cars are
standing still, for the camera).

WRONG AGAIN... !!!

It never ceases to amaze me how some people can leap to conclusions with no authority and a smattering of fallacious logic.

Under these conditions, with a 200mm or less lens, you can get a shutter speed of around 1/400th of a second. You should be able to freeze the action, while limiting movement.

PHOTO : "Pit Stop for Coors Light." Al Unser Jr. stops for service in the Indy car race at Mid-Ohio raceway in 1984. The photograph was taken with a Canon A-1 camera and Canon 100-300mm f5.6 zoom lens. The film was Kodak Tri-X to give a shutter speed of 1/1000 of a second.

PHOTO : "Out of Control at Daytona" was taken at the Firecracker 400 at Daytona International Speedway. The driver, Ricky Rudd, spun and crashed coming out of turn four. The photograph was taken using Etkachrome 200 film, shutter speed of 1/1000 of a second and f5.6 lens opening. Camera was a Canon A-1 with 300mm f4.0 lens.

Ah, Jeeze, Roger!

Do you see any DUST/dirt being raised up by the wheels?

1/1000 second won't 'stop' a spinnining wheel, and, if the camera were
being panned, along with the cars speeding-driving by (so that they
might be in focus), the background would be blurred.

The cars were stopped, when they were photographed.
