trying a new lens (50mm fixed 1.4). had front row seats and got some pretty good shots. I messed up though and didn't take them in raw, cuz i would like to change the white-balance post shot, but can't. o well. I like the pic pretty well and hope you do to!

Greetings from the Critique club Great shot. It's so hard to work with the existing light in these situations.
The main thing I see is the crop. Way too tight horizontally.
I'm probably the worst person to get this image to critique, since I don't do this sort of work!
The large sign (?) above the person detracts. I'd suggest cloning it out. A little darkening of the bright lights would also cause the machine and rider to stand out more.
I think this image could be made to be really outstanding with a bit of work in Photoshop.
Love the concept of the shot. But I think the sled is a little crowded in the picture. I think the lighting is a little to thin as well. It could've been a little brighter which might've also lessened your shutter speed and made the picture a trite bit clearer as well.
