Vorderman,

Align to vector uses quarternions so no gimbal lock. Something like this should work ..

;align X-axis 
tformvector 1,0,0, CARmesh, 0
aligntovector CAMERA, tformedx(), tformedy(), tformedz(), 1, .25
;align z axis
tformvector 0,0,1, CARmesh, 0
aligntovector CAMERA, tformedx(), tformedy(), tformedz(), 3, .25

You may only need Pitch and Roll axes.

[EDIT] So you've found some motivation at long last!!! Don't I know this feeling.
