My dad is sponserd by spy outlet and they gave us a mini camera for the race car and in order to record it needs a camcorder with video in but most of the new camcorders with video in are $1000+. i was wondering if there was any other way that we could record video without spending $1000. Thanks in advance.

Hook up a small laptop, or dare I say it… a VCR!

lol we stopped at a pawn shop to see if they had any old cameras and he said the same thing. get a converter box and use a vcr.
