I was never comfortable panning on a monopod. It's actually very awkward to get a smooth motion in the horizontal plane without tilting the horizon.
I much prefer to hand-hold for those shots.

Are you using servo focus for those action shots or just focus and wait? I have never trusted the AF to keep track of a moving subject with the cheaper bodies, and never tried servo mode on 5D2. that was with the D90. slow the shutter, rapid fire as they blow by and hope you get a good one, lol. usually just leave it on the center focus point with regular AF, and try and track it. the throwaway rate is high until you get the hang of it. hopefully the 5dii and the 400 5.6 will yeild similar results this year.
Cool. I never do any panning, guess I should get out and practice. I had a D90 for a year and it was a love / hate relationship. Wish there are some features from it on the canons I have now. Still Have a D200 and manual lenses, but just use them for my own amusement.
You'll get similar focal length photos, but the quality will be noticeably better with the FF sensor and better glass.

that sensor isn't dirty, it's infected with digital aids.

Dude, anytime u'r shooting a moving object, you're panning 
Servo is a must for things that move.
For pans with blur while shooting the car from the side, I don't use the monopod. For pans while shooting them coming head on, I may or may not use a pod depending on the lens I'm using. 300 and under almost always no pod. 400 I could hand held for a while. 600 forget it; need the pod 
When you get bored of using a telephoto to pan, use a wide angle  But I think the most important bit is to remember that panning is just like off camera flash....it's a technique. Technique might make a poorly composed picture better once in a while; but chances are combining technique with context and composition would make a GREAT picture. A lot of pans I find have the technique, but they neglected context and composition.

That is pretty...very nice. I would be doing more of these, particularly now that there is snowpack, but too busy studying.  Camera has been packed away for months.

Also, is that looking down south at SLC? Great time of day for that shot.
That resolution is great too, you can almost see the state congressperson takin' a dump.
