EFA Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 Does anyone know of an insurance policy for track day cover only for participants vehicle(i.e. no road risk or liabilty cover)??? Also anyone ever had reason to claim under the MSM/NiG scheme for Caterhams - what was the turnaround time on repairs/payment like?? MSM/NiG have offered to insure my car at a somewhat (40%) reduced rate over Royal Sun Alliance, but the excess is double and there is no track day cover. There cover is also limited to £35k insured value before excess gets excessive (a quick tot up of the cost of replacing my car (parts only - all new parts)) in the event of a total loss is around £40k). RSA are happy to insure for £40k Seeing as I plan to do say 4 or 5 track days in the remainder of 2002, what would you do?

F355GTS Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 Arnie Stick with Aon, it's so easy to ring up and just tell them you're doing a day or as I do I e-mailed the whole schedule for hte year and they just stick in a file. Never had a claim an accident claim with them in 5 years so don't know how good they are Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Ince Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 5 more track days. The man is finally using his car on track! Perhaps this is serious training for the August Sprint. Stop dreaming Arnie, Peter has told me that you are not going to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gridgway Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 Arnie, from my recent experience, the only way to cost effectively get anything like full cover is to get a road insurance that covers tracks days (like you have). The CCI route is good to give some financial support in the event of a small to medium prang. To get anything like the value of the car though is reeelly expensive.

msm4cats Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 Just to clarify a point if I may Arnie. Value £30k+ up to £35k, excess £350 Value £35k+ up to £40k, excess £400 I make that just £50 difference for up to £5k difference in value. Re track cover, for those considering a road policy that provides or can be extended to including track cover, if you prang it on the track and then need to make a claim you are claiming on your ROAD policy, whereas if you have separate track cover on which you claim, your road record is unaffected.

V7 SLR Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 That's sensible Dave. By the way, thanks for turning round my new policy in amazingly short order. I know I should perhaps pick up the phone for this, but it might be useful for others too... how is trackday cover (not an uplift to the road cover) charged for? Is it track by track or any amount of tracks for the year? Is the quote dependant on your driving record/NCB etc or on the value/performance of the car? Thanks.

Gridgway Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 Dave, thats a good point. I decided to go with a road policy that covers the value of the car with each track day costing £35. And yep if I write the car off, any future road insurabce will be more expensive. However, I would do no track days at all at £380 a go! You pays yer money...

rgrigsby Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 AON were distinctly unhelpful when I phoned them, apparently as my cars a Q plate they can't insure it... Rob G www.SpeedySeven.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Gibb Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 Arnie, Get a quote from Adrian Flux before deciding. They do a policy inclusive of trackday cover with ?Group Armour (usual excess on track ~ 10% agreed value) with no additional premiums but a larger initial outlay. I have yet to make a claim so no experience of their behaviour if you were unlucky enough to have to do so.
