That can be more tricky. At the track I commonly see expensive looking 
mounts that have 3 or 4 suction cup feet on them, but that would be pretty 
hard to make and make reliable. If I were doing it (with access to the 
fabrication equiment here and with TIG/MIG welding ability) I would build a 
bracket that bolts to some existing bolt holes in the trunk (like maybe the 
latch bolts) that is slender enough to close the trunk on, then maybe a 
support leg that bolts somewhere under the bumper. In the front I would do a 
simmilar thing using the fender bolts. Could work well if you've got the 
equiment to make it happen...

I'm also thinking that you'd get alot of wind noise with a regular 
camera-mounted microphone. I'm thinking for a nice exhaust note you'd want a 
remote mic with one of those fluffy wind gaurds on it.
