I did use hama's suction cup camera mount for in car camera.
It's very convenient and enough strength to support cam.

ah i see, there is a similar product in the US:
http://www.chasecam.com/mounts-suction.htm
do you attach the mount to the rear window? do you use any kind of tethers to secure the camera in case the suction cup comes loose?
sorry about all the questions, I really want to set up a in-car camera for my track runs next month at VIR, and then be able to share my footage with everyone here :D

I've never experienced my camera mount became loose during track run.

What do you think of the Fujita Engineering FM801 (it is 10kg front and 6 kg rear). Will that be very bumpy on the road?
Which radiator did you use?
Thanks

thanks for the answer about the pads. I'll go for endless as soon as my MS pads are finished... expensive company but it has great products...
those values are pretty high. you made me wonder now, how my hipermax II coilovers are going to handle in the track (spring rate 8kg/mm fr 5kg/mm re)...

I just saw this thread after doing a search for "RX-8 video". I had a question - how come you had the windows open during the race? Wouldn't that add a lot of drag?

We should close driver side of window during track driving and we may open other windows.I used to open passenger side of window for ventilation.
