has decent reviews.

Should have been more detailed. Mounts other than the actual cheap ones you get with the camera. What's everybody using?

Same question here. I made up an automatic roll off system for my gopro. Currently a prototype but getting ready to cut tooling for the production piece and it would be nice to have a heavier duty roll bar mount. The roll off system is large enough that I use two smaller roll bar mounts. But I had an idea to just make an aluminum version of the gopro roll bar mounts? Figure I could then go back to using just one mount. But would be interested in seeing what others are using. See if anyone was using a ball head mount? Steve

I use the one from speedway. Ran about 25 races last year (on some real rough tracks)and it took a beating but never broke or stretched. I do put a zip tie through the back of the door and zip tie it to the roll cage just incase it did break I wouldn't lose the camera.

I found a billet aluminum mount on Ebay after breaking two plastic mounts, it is a very solid unit. here it is:

How does the roll bar mount from GoPro work?

Thats what speedway sells. I just bought one yesterday and it is GoPro brand.

The plastic GoPro mount will break and you will loose your camera if its not tethered.

[Sportmod Rookie]

What's the best way to tether the camera then?

[racinjj]

Get an aluminum mount and you wont have to worry about it. I used a tether that I had from and old camera mount, I had my plastic mount break and found my camera up against the wall in turn three after all the races were done.

Just buy a 'Manfrotto 035 Super Clamp' goggle it
They can hold 30lbs.
You will need an attachment so camera can be screwed on in any angle
this clamp is very strong
