I am sure this has been asked before, but how/who do you arrange your insurance with as mine does not cover track use, can you get a day policy ??

it depends what type of cover you want.. if it's third party indemnity then you get that anyway as a member of the BMW Car Club (that's at our own events)
If you want you car covered for accidental damage.. then you must buy some cover as either a one off premium for the event you are going to do.. or if like me you choose a trackday friendly insurer you will have it as part of your regular policy.. What your insurance won't provide are repairs to the other guys car in the event of a collision... so don't be under the illusion that if some numpty whacks you that they will have to pay up... it may indeed be his fault but you will have to mend your own car. So.. choose your trackday provider carefully. A lot of the risk can be minimised by a good TDO. Nick |

I'm not sure if this will be of use to you, but for my classic M5 (when I had it) I went through Heritage insurance and it was covered automatically for any track day. James. |

Which bit? The cost of the repair or the punching of the windscreen? |
