I think some track day organisers will want to inspect the mount and issue a tag to say it's ok. They might want to see a tether so it doesn't fly off if the mount gives way. Most don't like sucker type mounts on the external body work.

...and flying cameras are a safety issue at +100mph!

as above ive got a home made one with no problems at snetterton or cadwell, they do look but think as long as its fitted firmly no gaffa tape or cable ties should be ok
