first decent rolling shot.
Just a beginner here too. What settings did you take it at. Something like that I would use a higher iso speed and your shutter speed on the higher side to.. Also what camera are you using?

it doesnt look too bad but remember no matter what you are shooting, how you are shooting it, if its a hard shot to get or an easy shot to get, always think about composition!
in this shot we can see a rolling car pretty clearly. but its too far away and i can also see the window sill of the car your in.
as for settings i keep in mind what michael taught me and tellls everyone. for shutter speed start out with the same speed as your going so if your doing 50mph putt the shutter speed at 1/50. and then you can tweak your setting from there.

Looks like the front of my kids car...well what it used to look like at least

Austin has it right. Compare your settings to how fast you are going and go from there. It shouldn't be too far off but you might have to change your aperture depending on the time of day you're shooting.
Not a bad start though.

Rule of thumb... Try to match your speed (mph) with your shutter speed. This works great on highway shots like the one you posted. From there, you can adjust accordingly to get the effects you want, ex: more motion blur, sharper car, etc.
White cars are tough because something is most likely going to be overexposed. The car will look blown out and the background will look on point or he car will look great and the background will be to dark... hope ya know some PS

tl;dr:
shutter speed: 1/197 (wtf?)
aperture: f/22
iso: 1600
First off, take it off auto. Seriously. Auto fire shots never come out good.
Your camera will more than likely have a shutter priority. So when you go to do this again, just pick your shutter speed and it'll do everything else for you.
Also, turn off auto ISO adjustment and set it to something low (250, 320, etc) to start, and adjust up as you need to.
Now, if you really wanna get the proper exposure, set it to manual and LRN2PHOTOGRAPHY!!!
