i donno know if they allow photography or video recording, cause last night a buddy was in my car and he wanted to film the two guys going before us, and they would let him(wasnt even like he was trying to record me driving).

ill have to test fit it on savages vaders...the poles that come out of the vaders are the same the only problem is clearence where the vaders sides come down and overlap the seat but it might work...but not bad for $13 and that includes the mount

Are you going to the Auto-X tomorrow? That would be a cool video.

I don't know why they'd have a problem with you videotaping...that doesn't make much sense.

It ain't pretty but it definitely gets the job done. Kudos for having the ingenuity to build a fully functional rig on the cheap. I love little projects like this. :thumbup:

You can video tape at NED as long as it's not freehand inside the car. With the seat mount you should be able to tape the run. Give the track a call and check first. Nice job on the simple DIY job. Let us know how it works out. My friend bought a mount for like $45 shipped few weeks ago. He'll also be filming up at NED before it closes for the season.
