Insurance for the Track Date in Taupo

**Cibby** · 15th December 2005, 13:39

Ok.

So i'm sorry to be a geek but it comes with the profession.

Will everyone please check your insurance policies for track day cover.

If you are with me, you are covered, however i have been made aware that Swann Insurnce dont cover anything on the track at all.

If you are unsure, please call your insurance company and decribe sunday as a "Rider Improvement Day" ensure that you mention that none of the laps are timed and that is ISNT A RACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you need insurance, then i can offer you track cover but it has to be for a full year ( I cant do one days) and only if you are over 25 with a clean(ish) riding history... Email me on racheal@inscon.co.nz

actually.. i woudl prefer if you didnt email me, only cause i have heaps of work but i can help those of you who need it!!!!!!!!!!

Cause i'm nice like the..

Kindest Possible Regards

stuff insurance, just dont crash. the likly hood of being paid out with out any hassle is probably very low.

i resent that remark ever so slightly,

i have discussed this particular cover with the insurer and they are aware of what is going on. and are aware of the risks involved.

So all good.

so if someone was to crash at 250km down the straight because they didnt brake in time or they hit slippry spot on the track, or something like that, and they wrote off a $20,000 bike and needed hospital cover the insurance would pay out without a problem??

better than doing it on the road and crashing the bike into a bugatti and a rolls royce!

The increased rider ability from training also reduces the chance of them crashing off the track as alot of the skills learnt are transferrable to the road.

Many a reason why they should insure days like these

yeah but lets just say you dont die then

**bugjuice** · 15th December 2005, 15:05

then yes. They agreed to cover you, so they have to cough up. You paid your premium, they insure you on the track. It's in that bit you sign, called a legal contract

neat, huh?

I agree they should but i just dont see it being as clear cut as pay your premium and no matter what theyl pay you out.

Ask Biff about that one he totalled his Blackbird going into turn one at Ruapuna with his insurance guy watching at a track/training day and was paid out with no problems, probably wasn't doing 250kmh though as he'd be to scared to wind the throttle round that far
