+1 want to know as well

Made some hand-held recordings (passenger) while driving at a track day, but it's damn too shaky.

Manfrotto suction cup with pump.

Something like that. Keeps the camera inside or outside the car...also @ racetrack. Tested with Ferrari F430 over 200km/h and it works.

something like that will work mounted on the inside of the car like to one of the windows or hanging down from the sunroof..
