Default In Car Camera

Where can I get a mount for an in car camera? I don't have a roll cage to mount it to. I wanna get some videos of the Bird going down the track.

Wow. I never even thought about suction cups. But how well will they hold on the inside hatch glass since it's got the lines for the defrost?

Should be fine, might take some tinkering to get it just right to keep suction over those defrost lines. Depends on how thick they are and if they're smooth beause that would determine if the suction cup and hold onto the contours of it. The smoother and flatter the surface the better obviously.
I'd check the defrost lines on my car but i don't have them.

I'd get some nice glass cleaner and clean the area real good first, make sure there's no oils and dust left on the glass so you'll get the best seal out of it.

I have one myself. They work a lot better than you'd think. I stick it on the outside of my car all the time without any problems whatsoever.

I want it mainly for those in-car vids going down the track. Not sure if my local track officials would have an issue with me having it mounted ouside the car.

If that's what you're going to use it for the most I doubt they'll let you mount it on the outside of the car. I thought I could never feel safe with it on the outside but after you put it on for the first time you'll never worry about it again. I can rock the entire car from side to side with it and it never comes loose. So a little wind won't hurt it in the least. I've even used it with only three suction cups attacted and still didn't worry about it. It works that well.
