Not sure whether to post this here,in General Motorsport or Photograph forums,but here goes...
Im thinking of buying a camcorder like this http://www2.panasonic.com/consumer-electronics/sho...

Not sure which exact one , but you get the picture.

Does anybody know where i could get a mounting device to atach to a roll cage, never had a camcorder before so im not up to speed on this sort of thing.
Is there a generic type of mount available or does every body use bullet cameras ?? (whatever they arehehe)

Thanks.

These guys do a whole range of stuff - http://www.b-hague.co.uk/Mounting%20Brackets.htm  - I use the SC2 kit on the rollbar with an ordinary Sony DV camera

I recommend using a bullet cam, soft mount the camcorder somewhere safe.

Thanks for replys, a couple of good sites to investigate.
I'll have to check the MSA blue book as well,hopefully these mounts are ok for competition use.

I have a Hague mounting on the rollbar and the scrutineers have never mentioned it.
