Have you tried it out yet?

If it works well, I'm going to Home Depot before the next event.

 

I made one simmular to this a couple of weeks ago for some of the local autoX's and I cant recommend it enough it is one of the coolest thing I have for my car!
now I need to find one I can use at the strip

 

sweet, nice fabrication

 

 

Good job

I've seen it done like this before too:

 

Nice ! Good Idea

 

i would go with the one seat setup...

If you use two seats, its impossible to get behind the camera to aim it, and if you have to keep both seats at the same position..

 

i used that one as the idea. Austin built his like that, but it was too shaky. So I just extended the both bars accross.

I alread have system to setup the camera. It has a LCD screen instead of a view finder. I can take guess, then look at the screen from the outside of the car, and adjust it as necessary.

I did the full bar too about 3 weeks ago. It was a royal pain in the **** to get to the back seats, so I just cut the bar in half and used bungee cords and a luggage strap to make the mount more steady.. Taking pictures tomorrow.
