Hey - I'm trying to figure out a handy way to mount a camcorder when I do my SoloSprint... I don't have a roll bar or a harness bar... I've looked in some camera stores for something and held the camera in various spots but haven't come up with anything for a mounting point. I'm hoping to get it mounted so I can see a bit of what the driver is doing.
Any thoughts/experience on where to mount one other than to the passenger seat head rest? Thanks |

Thanks for the offer but have to keep my back seat functional... helmet cam is a neat idea but just looking to use what I have - thanks anyway!
Maybe the headrest mount will be the easiest after all... the bungee cord/strap may be the solution as the seat seems pretty flimsy! Thanks Jim |

It can be reversed to mount on the driver's seat if you prefer. I also modified a small extension so the camera sits higher. http://www.cruisecam.com/Mount_new.pdf |
