if lil john's expression are any sort of sign I think it is a really good thing.

I agree, autocross is indeed addicting.
Sort of like sex, except you have all of your clothes on. And you can do it in public without getting arrested.
I have a link somewhere to make a headrest mounted camera holder
Autocrossing - Phantom - 05-10-2006
If anyone has links/pics suggestions for making a camera mount pretty much just flat bottom mount with a screw for the buttom of the camera and that's done but mounting to the car. I could weld it to the hump in the back between the driver and passenger seat. I'm really open to all options here tho.

prolly cost ya like $5 in parts to make

I don't think that'll work I'm at work right now so can't check for sure, but in the pic it doesn't look like the seats have headrest bolts sticking out to mount to. So any other ideas?
