i can speak as a Canon user.

set your camera at Tv and manually set your SS starting at 1/100 and work your way down to 1/8. this would all depend on how fast the shooters car is going vs the subject car. also the closer you are to the subject car, the sharper image you'll get. also make sure you shoot from the side where the sun is hitting the car, otherwise you'll get underexposed images.

good luck!

the shots were taken at VERY low traveling speed (the engine was off, the car was pushed) and very long exposure (20-40 second exposure).

Just good 'ol in-camera work.

So how did you get the car to stay in focus. If you pushed the car and set a long exposure, wouldn't the car be blurred because it's in motion?

Tripod?
