Something like that? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Camera/Camcor...fd404ecf11c0a0aad3e23c82fff04f46#ht_699wt_941

My mate used something similar on his boat and it held up well.

Myself and a few others have 'DIY'd it for cheap, using the head from a tripod and an exhaust clamp or two round the bar, solid as a rock, its worked fine on all the trackdays ive done!

My take of said rig (a 2nd exhaust clamp just out of shot to the right, it's solid):

i was gonna use lots of tape with a bag over the camera with a hole for the lens

What about a Gorillapod? Wrap it round the cage?

yeah looking at picking one up tonight as my mount isnt gonna appear in the post ne time soon

I'd use a lot of tape to hold the gorillapod in place if you use one, they're ok for static stuff, but I imagine the bumps while moving would soon make it swivel.
