These are the most commonly used mounts IME.
I have used one on a drift day, no issues with falling off or vibration, even mounted externally on the roof.

An alternative is to do what I do and use a bullet camera which can literally be taped anywhere. Useful on trackdays where they don't want you mounting cameras externally.

Picture quality is great and sound is good too through seperate microphone.
You do need a DV with AV-in though....

I can second the bullet cam method.
Doc, what type of tape do you use? and where have you founfd that's best to put the mic? The engine bay sounds too mechanical but outside all I get is wind noise
