£55 delivered and comes with a "sports kit" so you can attach it to your helmet/bike/go kart etc.
Here's a video I made using it when I first got my bike. The camera is very small and the quality's great for the price IMO:

It's not bulky at all, it's actually very small. This is how I mounted mine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxZsckWZOAQ&feature=related
It records for 2 hours and comes with a 2GB memory stick.

Thats not bad idea... worried that in the race it gets a bit hot inside the helmet and steams up!

I like that.
Im after one for myself, but so many choices. The only thing im not sure with that is the wind noise when your getting up to higher speeds.
Anyone else got any they can advise on as well?

I was looking at one I can get from America for $133 (£83), but it retails at £199 over here.
But its more of a full camera kit.
But for £50, this is mega!! I want quality, and wind noise dispersion (so you can hear the engine revving).
Bit like TV's, sooo many choices, so much hard work

When a mate of mine started a doorman job in a night club he had to wear a head cam, (for his own safety) needless to say all the drunkards in the club used to take the piss outta him
