what are the rules on mounting my video camera at oulton park trackday,i have made a mount my self ,is this ok or does it have to be one say fia aproved or something.

its only a camera mount, not any safety thing. it'll be fine

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!

I used a home made mount on my last track day with no probs.

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
