I've been kicking myself for not making one of these on the lathe at school while I had free access to it. I think I'm going to ask my uncle if I can use his lathe to make one. Nice work.

That's the same cupholder I use. Works pretty good, and can be easily removed for autocrossing.

I have an old rotor I just put on the pass. floormat and it accomodates many styles and sizes of cups and has enough mass not to slide around.

If I'm ordering through drive-thru I get a drink tray and stick one end under the passenger seat slider handle. Never spills but can get a little precarious if I forget it's there and push the corners a little too hard.
