Bought a new window camera mount

At my local computer store, they were selling this neat suction camera mount, it was reasonable priced at $25, and it holds my digital camera in place very well.

I have autocross this weekend so lets hope it gets some good videos.

looks virtually identical to the gopro suction mount.
I use it a lot and handles at least 250km/h winds.

get creative. it'll make some very interesting video

For extra security, people use tape around the mount too. Like duct tape around the cup edges. Or like some mounts, they have a tether attached to the camera so if the mount fails, you don't drop the valuable bit.

more reason to get a GoPro. if it falls off and bounces around under the car. you just go pick it up.

I've got a VHoldr Contour HD, I think its way more user friendly than the Contours, especially when you just want to reach out of the car and turn it on. Has a rotating lens too so you can level the picture.
