Pics were taken using a Canon Rebel XT w/ kit 75-300mm lens. Pics are untouched. Thank you to those who helped point me in the right direction when I was a beginner a few months ago.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
 
Just a bit too far, I think. I'd post process them also, to increase contrast.

What happened to that dirt S2000?
 
I have photoshop...But I have absolutely no idea how to use it.

The S2000 lifted on one of the downhill turns and he spun out into the muddy infield. Mud was in his interior, wheels, dripping from the undercarriage..it was messy.

Presumably you paid for the Photoshop, even though you don't know how to use it? ;)

Frankly, the shots look fine to me, just need more of them (I know absolutely nothing about photography.)
 
Here's the world fastest bit of PP just to give you an idea ...

I done a quick curves adjustment, a very gentle 'S' to enhance the contrast a bit, before doing the levels to make the blacks black and the whites white. I cloned out some sensor dust and then an Unsharp Mask of 300, 0.3, 0 which is specifically for web sharpening before fading back the USM and changing it to luminosity. It's not a massive difference but its there all the same ...
 
That S2000 looks epic.
