You just have to figure out a mounting solution. You can use the rear glass but given how wide angle it is you end up with a lot of car interior in the shot and not much road.

This one has to be one of the best cameras out there, just expensive. Combine with an external mic it is great.

I like the rear quarter window



As well as attaching to the drivers seat. Helmet works well also.

I do the quarter window for auto-x but I'm always afraid the camera will come off at 130 mph on the track. I should just attach it to the passenger seat head rest or something.

Yeah, I just tether it into the car when it's out there.
