ok, I can see using a minicamera, it would seem to be a lot easier
as well... strap the camera down somewhere in the car, run the
attachment to your helmet..
two questions. do you just buy an attachment for a normal, super
8, camera? or do you have to buy a mini camera?
what about just mounting it to the front of the car, that could be an
interesting shot... or one on each side of the car...

Mini-camera taped to the side of your helmet. Autocross has
smaller
corners than road-racing (at least, it's supposed to). The problem
with putting a camera on the car is that you get a shot of the car
going straight, then a lateral blur, then the car car going straight
again. Not very instructive.
Camera on helmet follows your head at you look ahead (you DO
look
ahead, don't you?) and captures the autocross experience much
better
than a camera which is nailed to a car.
