+1 want to know as well

Made some hand-held recordings (passenger) while driving at a track day, but it's damn too shaky.

Something like that. Keeps the camera inside or outside the car...also @ racetrack. Tested with Ferrari F430 over 200km/h and it works.

something like that will work mounted on the inside of the car like to one of the windows or hanging down from the sunroof..

my friend also told me about something that can fit into the headrest slots that you can put on the pass. front seat. ill look into it some more.
