Default In Car Camera Setup Pics and Vids

Just for those of you interested in an in-car camera setup. I found some suppliers of mounts and camera supplies and made my own. I found that the mount is extremely steady and would hold up to drag racing or road racing applications. Almost limitless possiblities in camera angles.

Looks great.

What did you have to put together and where did you get the components?

TIA,
Jim

Got the majority of parts from http://cinemasupplies.stores.yahoo.net/carmounts.html

few things like the suction cup i had at work. Bought the ball head on ebay. At the cinema supplies website they sell a complete kit for almost $200. I bought several things that I could not get locally. Put it together myself for about $120.

It is perhaps one of the most stable camera mount platforms I have used. Besides from excessive vibrations from wheel spin, it is very stable. I use it on the drag and on the road courses and it has given me great results
