It's a good composition and excellent panning, but sadly, in the end, the image feels a little flat.

thanks for the comment, maybe the shutter speed could have been abit faster to reduce the blurr but I was trying to enhance the feeling of speed.

No, quite the contrary, that motion blur is perfect for this image.
When I said the image felt flat I was talking about the processing. Maybe a little more local contrast (without blowing highlights or losing detail in shadows) or a more pronounced vignetting giving more emphasis on the car.
Again: the photo itself is very good. It's the post-processing that would benefit from some more work. However, if you're a purist and believe the photo should stay the way it was produced by the camera, what I'm saying becomes irrelevant.
