Insurance and track days!

[gasman15]

Owned a 172 a few years back, now looking for a 182 as a second car to have some track time!

I'm 23 with 5 years ncb, anybody know of a company that will offer me insurance with track day cover?

thanks Matt

Check Sky's section on here as well.

If you stack it, tow it somewhere and 'place' it in a ditch. Risky, but it's been done sucessfully before with more exotic machinery (not by me mind!)

And if you hit someone else...?

 

[Fred@BTM]

Insuring a £2-3K car on track? worth it?

Or get normal insurance for road, then trackday insurance for track days. I do this, with MORIS.

and what if they hit you and never had trackday cover, its 6 & two 3's really

 

[gasman15]

How much extra is it likely to cost to for track cover? Will sky provide me cover for both then?

How much does this cost?

I just take the risk as I imagine most do..

And if you do.. you obviously take the risk that someone could crash into you in track not just you crashing yourself..

How much does this cost?

£45 a day with Greenlight.

I took the risk, mainly because the excess was so high it wasn't really worth doing in my eyes.

If it's your only car then surely the answer would be yes?

 

[gasman15]

Who covers remaps as believe some insurance company's are funny about remaps now?

 

[Cub.]

As said, about £45 a day for 'day only'. MORIS cover all mods, as do people like Sky, Greenlight and Brentacre. I have an agreed value for both road and track, and its a fair bit more than £2k to £3k

It's personal preference really, some people are more risk averse than others. If mine was a stock 172 I'd probably not bother with trackday insurance.

Personally I wouldn't tell them about a remap.. Might get people saying you should tell them every little thing but that's upto you..

I bet everyone who does an rs tuner map on here doesn't tell them infact probably 90% won't have.. All IMO btw

 

[gasman15]

Will have to get on the phone! Can u still get the Rs tuner? Didn't it come with a launch control and pop and bang map?!

 

[danh90]

Don't know about launch control but yeah can get the pop and bang map. I'm sure I saw about 4 for sale the other day on here best -£100 I've ever spent
