While not that cheap, the Panasonic D-Snap camcorders are fairly small and
light weight (120g for SV-AV50) and record very good video.

It really depends on the size/engine of your model. With a sports model
and a sizeable engine I would think that several of the current crop of
small digital camcorders might well do. You'd have to rig an actuator
with a mechanical linkage to press the record button - but most
model-makers are adept at that sort of thing.

I'd suggest a visit down your high-street camcorder retailer to get a
hands-on with some of them.
