I need to fix my camera as the suction mount isn't allowed on alot of trackdays. I was thinking of a bit of wood between the drivers and passengers headrests but I don't want it to mark the seats and also if the passenger seat isn't level with mine then the mount will no longer work.

Anyone got any photos of what they've made, preferably DIY as I need one by tomorrow?

You should've said this earlier. I could've picked up my proper head rest mount like this:





Fairly pointless when you don't have that type of head rest any more.

It's what I used to use for my videos like this:

I've got a 15" cable tie wrapped round the sunvisor. Did it just to see how it was but it turned out to be pretty damn good. I've got it so that I just need to slide my phone in the front, face the camera out and it's set. Only bad thing is that you can't see interior. I've been trying to upload videos but I can't get them to transfer, anyone good with nokias?

Steve, this is the review for the drillmans

quote:

Best pub around Cirencester - 5 Star Rating
By john - 10 Nov 2009
Cirencester is really up itself, petrol several pence dearer than swindon, beer prices dear, housing dearer, resturants ect ect. But the drillmans with Denise and Dick is a great pub, with old charm and values, and very good Beers, they have several different beers all real, and doombar. Its a freindly nice pub and they have got it right in these day of doom for the pub trade. we should all support them.&#8206;


Will c'ya there

My camera wouldn't mount to that mount though?

Again, still a sucker mount, and I need one for tomorrow. 2 trackdays now I've not been able to film cause they have told me beforehand that I can use it then on the day I can't so just want to get something proper. Even if I just make one for now and buy one later I just need something today.

The problem with having the wide go pro is that I can't have it too far back in the car either cause you'll only mostly be able to see the inside of the car
