Vehicle, say, in track event getting withdrawn (6,3)
I believe the answer is:
estate car
'vehicle' is the definition.
(I know that estate car is a type of motor car)
'say in track event getting withdrawn' is the wordplay.
'say in' becomes 'etats' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'track event' becomes 'race' (I've seen this in another clue).
'getting' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'withdrawn' is a reversal indicator.
'etats' placed within 'race' is 'racetatse'.
'racetatse' back-to-front is 'ESTATE-CAR'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for estate car that I've seen before include "Brake" , "Vehicle with five doors" , "Station wagon" , "Spacious vehicle" , "employed at Sandringham?" .)
