Bugs like races too
Bugs in the lights make cool, random patterns in the lights at Bridgeport Speedway
In the Saturday night at the Bridgeport Speedway Dirt track photo essay.

May - this was done with my "long range macro"! I use the 70-300 with VR (vibration reduction) for a walk-around lens, and can generally get reasonably close shots. In this case - the bug-trails were a cool surprise which I never saw till I downloaded the imags.
I was shooting at ISO 2500, and the shutter was still VERY slow. So I was relying on the VR plus just leaning against a wall to get as steady as I could (no tripod here).
With the slow shutter the moving bugs made their own trails. I'll bet you could hang a bulb in the back yard and get some similar effects.
