In car cameras
Was looking to get video footage of my track session at brands. i've got a digital cam corder so if i find a way of mounting this in the car would it be ok viewing wise or would i be better off borrowing / buying a cheap bullet cam. It's not going to be used a lot this year so cheaper the better.

You've got a suction pad haven't you? Stick that in the window then give it a thrashing and see if it the footage is ok.

Maybe check with brands, but most circuits will not let you out with camera mounts.
Give Mike a call, think he has 2 bullet cams, and we usually only have 1 fitted.

Ive got 1 of the twin suction pullers with a camera mount(cctv arm) fixed to it, I fix this to the inside of the rear window, footage seems ok, if you do a search on you tube there if various ones, its under speedfreaksuk07.
cost about 8 quid all in.

Brands make you sign a disclaimer if you use a camera but other than that they don't mind.
