I got a "My Sticky Pod". It will allow you to attach a camera anywhere on a car.
For that video, I just used one suction cup threaded directly into the bottom thread of the camera. Then just stuck it to the dashboard, just to the left of the rear view mirror.

The suction cup is only $9, but I bought the whole kit. I want to try taking some shots from down low on the outside, but there probably will be a lot of wind noise, rather than engine noise.
I used my Nikon Coolpix 9600 camera. It takes good photos and videos. But I want to buy a small video recorder that has a "remote" microphone as an input, so you can really get the engine noise rather than wind noise when the camera is not behind the windshield.
I used the Nikon software to download the video to my hard drive and then uploaded it to YouTube.
