Actually seems like a great idea for trackdays, given a solid mounting system for a helmet or car. I know they sell a helmet-mounting system too.

i was really considering getting this for a while. for the price though, i'd get a p&s with the ability to record in HD...maybe something along the lines of the panasonic lumix cams. i already have a suction cup mount and a tube mount that i currently use for my SLR that i can adapt for it.

it is a pretty cool cam though and i wouldn't be worried about mounting it to the outside of a speeding vehicle. when i use my SLR suction-cupped to the outside of my window, i leave the strap hooked up to the headrest just in case.
