I don't know about AutoX tripod. I don't have much experience on shooting AutoX, let alone shooting AutoX with a tripod.
UV filter tho, what's the reason for having one? A high-pass and a low-pass filter usually built in to most digital camera sensors I think, so blocking UV with a filter isn't that useful. Of course there's always people that want to buy a UV filter to protect then lens elements... but even that is up for debate..... Other than my 70-200 2.8 IS, I don't put any UV filters on any of my lenses.
IMO Tiffen isn't so good of a brand. For a mid price brand, I'd say Hoya/Kenko. For good brass rings, B+W. Pretty much the 2 most common brands serious amateur fotogs uses.
Difference between this and the Tiffen is the coating, the glass and this is a slim ring. Coating usually affects whether you'll get glare and flare in your photo, while a slim ring not only is less intrusive from the outside, but also reduce the chances of getting vignette (dark corners) in your photos.
I'd say forget about the UV, provided your camera has a hood. Put the money into a quality CPL. Filters usually last longer than a camera or a lens because they are compatible with any lens or system with the same or smaller thread size, so get a better one!
影賽車吾應該用三腳架wor.. 單腳可能有用D,但係handhold會free好多
what u need to practice is your handheld panning skills
when shooting fast moving things.. you should not seat there and let your subject go by you
you need to move your camera along with the subject at the same time with the same speed. but the most important part is to use very high shutter speed

I was thinking he wanted to do panning with the tripod? Like with a ball head or something? i guess that might still work. Just that I don't have any experience shooting cars, esp on a tripod...
But I agree, first intuition also tells me that it'd probably be easier to pan w/o the tripod, unless you are talking about some mega heavy set-ups (500 f4 w/ 1Dm3 or something)
