P_Zero_Rosso,
That panningshot isn't that bad at all, it's a nice image in fact. It depends on what you like yourself as well. When it comes to panningshots I like to see the car being very sharp. But that's just mine humble opinion.
As being a Nikon user myself I always set the AF-mode on AF-S. You have a AF-C as well and that's as you may know Continuous AutoFocus mode. I never use this due to it is often too slow to end up with sharp images. I have no idea how it's like on the D2hs and the D2x. The thing I have read about this AF-C mode is, that it has to be very very good on the D2hs.
I guess it also has to with how you are use to shoot your pannings. I always pre-focus and when the car passes by you can clearly see when it comes into the sharp area. I have tested to shoot on AF-C mode before but I didn't like the results, once you get the hang of it you will see you will hardly miss a panning 8)
Cheers
