Mounting a camera to a race car

I think this would apply to any action camera but it is kind of cool to see where the cameras are actually mounted when you see some of these extreme action shots.

I can't wait to get the additional mounts I ordered so I can attach my camera to my 1971 Ford Pinto.

:CS: Hey, I may be in the market for one of those classics. Every time my husband talks about getting a vintage car I tell him I will get him a Pinto. I think he wants a vet.

My friend in HS had a Nova. No carpet, no A/C, nothing special. We probably put a 100k on that car!

Here is my car in Mexico.

I like that car. Now if you want to upgrade I think Janis Joplin's old Porsche is up for sale.
