Arrow Camera Mount for Racing ?

I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get a camera that sits on top of the car, like the ones used for the GT1 cars. The sleak small stands that have a camera mounted inside of them?

I am looking to add 3 cameras to my 85 rx7 gsl. Top, Side, and Interior. I already have the interior one set and ready to go.

Thanks

How do you record it? I can't seem to find a small video-recorder with video-in.

I have a interior cam setup in my car.

When my car and I are ready, im going to make some "geteway in stockholm" style videos.

Set courses on public streets at like 2 in the morning.

I would also be interested in one of those top mount cameras also.

i dont know about having more than one video camera. on one vcr. but if you want one that should work. the camera will just use the jacks on the VCR. and record away

Why dont you just attach the camera to the trailer hitch on your car?

Or...is that what you're recording.....the impending accident?

My purpose is to use these cameras when I go autocrossing and then post the on the forum and give them to my buddie.

Plus my Brother has Brain Cancer and would love to go to one of these and see me race, but he can't...

Thanks for the nice comment...

Maybe you can use CF to make a housing for the cam and put the wires through the sunroof.

Hey guys,

Thanks for all the great ideas. I have decided to sell my car. Many reasons have led up to this, but mostly becasue I will be moving to South Dakota this summer to work on a ranch, and I can't afford to not have a truck. Some other reasons also.
Thanks for all the support and thoughts. I won't probably have another Rx7 until later in life. Time to move on.

Ben
