I am getting ready to make one to attach to my cage, using a tripod swivel section thing, and a custom fabricated clamp.

I don't know if you have a cage or not but there are a few cage mounts, I will google it in a sec.

without a roll bar/cage to mount the camera too, there's not too many LEGAL ways to video without the risk of "flying projectile" at the end of the track. I have a rollbar mount that can be swapped from car to car with a poly shock mount to absorb the vibration. Made by IO Port.

I found this, posted it on SFR too... I used to know of another one, I'll keep looking.

That works with suction cups and being that we have huge windshields and t-tops, shouldnt be hard to find a place for it.

Still cant find the other one... But I did find these, they have a head rest bracket style mount which would work for my car, as well as a corvette headrest pullover style mount, which MIGHT work for your car.

And this one, which is totally bad *** because it can be attached to the outside of your car too!

You buy it here:

We could make some sick vids with that thing and a good camera. I say we do it, as you saw, I have all the video editing equipment we'd need. And we've got the cars/***** to make it interesting.
