Blatant copy and paste from my post on another forum, but thought it might interest people here who might be planning a trip to the ring as well so have duplicated it:
Firstly a HUGE thanks to Matt for sorting it all.
Basically a few months ago I contacted Matt about wanting insurance for a trip we have coming up in october.
He informed me that he could provide us a policy that was with an underwriter who would do extensions to the insurance for trackdays on an ad-hoc basis for an additional fee.
The price of the policy was around 600 pounds, with all modifications declared on the car (its not massively modified, just mild engine mods and upgraded brakes and suspension) which was competitive anyway, in fact even insured as a standard car it would have cost us over 400 pounds with the cheapest insurer and the best modified quote was hardly any less than this one and wouldnt have allowed the ring extension, so it was a no brainer for us to be insured properly for such a small extra premium.
Matt informed us that we should give him one months notice when we wanted trackday cover, and that it would be around 60 pounds per day for cover to use on track and that this would include not just cover of the car like a lot of policies, but also 3rd party cover at the ring which was our primary concern.
I spoke to him this week to confirm the details, and for a premium of 240 pounds he has arranged cover for both myself and my girlfriend on our 172 for 4 days at the ring and was able to include free of charge cover for our 1 day at spa on the way back.
I am absoultely over the moon with the service, I absolutely love the ring but am always nervous about the insurance side of it, so IMHO this is very cheap peace of mind
