need many opinions

I am completly new to all these new digital video cameras and everything. Ive seen them around just never used one. My brother, me and some friends are going to make an import tuning street racing dvd. Im just seeing if anyone has any pointers/tips on what camera to get or if the have any advice on making such a film. I was looking at the optura 300 mini dv. Im looking for somthing that will take nice shots of cars that are going fast, nice shots of being in a car looking at other stuff, nice shots when its nite time and the only light would be street lights or other headlights, and somthing that can have other lenses/ attachments on it. Im also not really looking to go over $1,000. Ive found the optura used for like 480 with like a tripod, case, extra battery, all the stuff that comes with it originally, a cleaning kit, and a uv lens. I thought that seemed like a good deal. Just let me know if anyone has any ideas/ tips/ suggestions. Thanks.

I'm going to move this to the DV forum. They can give you some good advice there. I was in the same boat and they helped me out
