Just gauging interest really people, but would any of you be interested in purchasing camera mounts for you track days/ quarter miling?

Not sure on definate price depends on interest, but expect around £25 delivered.

I might be able to get some made up they will look similar to this, any thoughts?

lol..depends where its mounted

mine would be mounted either on the pass side window, or the windscreen in the btm corner for road use, and under the mirroron the screen for track use.

Yeah will be universal for cars, camera tripods generally are universal so I'm led to believe

Yep the camera can be moved around on the the bracket.

Not too sure about the buckets though edde, don't think it would attach properly?

If you plan on using it for trackdays, make sure the circuits will allow them. The camera looks quite close to the drivers head and also isnt attached to a fixed part of the car so may not be allowed. Dont know for sure, but worth checking beforehand.

I know the stick-on ones arent allowed at any of the major circuits these days.

I bought one of these from Daipac on CS.net and its been allowed on a trackday @ Oulton Park and also one at Bruntingthorpe & @ Santa Pod, the quality of the mount is very good and there is no better way of securing a camera inside a car IMO. It can be very sturdy and also provides a good range of pickup of picture being in the centre of the car. £25 is a v.good price I bought mine for £35.

You'd be surprised what happens in a car when it hits a tyres wall/rolls over, Steve. Things you thought were safe tend to fly arout :shock:
