The premium does not reduce proportionately since the first 50% of the value of the vehicle is the most exposed part of the value. Insurers will provide a maximum sum insured of £120,000 on cars up to £200,000 total value.

See also "Cancellation" above. We cannot carry over a "credit" to a new policy since policy inception dates may overlap our contract renewals with insurers and this complicates our own accounting. We prefer to keep old and new policy transactions separate. This also gives you greater freedom should you wish to seek an alternative provider and you are not bound or limited to our services.

Where you are or have been unable to attend your track day(s) or the event(s) have been cancelled we will provide a refund (subject to no claims) according to the Cancellation Scale in our policy.

Insurers may not always agree to provide and cover and we can only accommodate cars up to a total value of £200,000. In any event the maximum cover we can provide is £120,000 sum insured irrespective of the value of the car. Insurers may insist there is an instructor in the car with you.

We can accommodate cars of up to £300,000 total value, but the sum insured and level of cover insurers are prepared to offer may vary depending on the type of activity and the circuit. Close attention is paid to the experience of the driver and insurers may require you to have a licenced instructor/ coach to act as an extra pair of eyes during your time on track.

Cars only - To reduce the premium it is possible to insure a lower sum than the total value of your car.

We fully understand that many track cars and bikes are modified and this may arguably increase the value beyond normal market value. We suggest you insure the vehicle for what you feel is a reasonable figure given any modifications. This is not an Agreed Value policy but, in the event of a total loss, you can open the conversation with the loss adjuster, at your level. You will be asked to justify this value, of course. The loss adjuster's background is very motorsport orientated, so he will understand the nuances of modifications. He may seek comparisons, so his recommendations are fair to both you and the insurers.

Cars only - If you insure a sum less than the full value of your vehicle you become liable for any damage above the sum insured. It is permissible to effect a second insurance policy with another provider for higher (additional) limits but speak with us first. We and any additional insurer will need to be aware of the existence of each set of responsibilities. There may be potential complications handling claims that need to be addressed ahead of time.

For multi-day policies, unless you instruct us otherwise, we will replace the cancelled date with another FREE of charge. If you need to cancel the policy (subject to no claims) we will follow the Cancellation Scale. We may need supporting documentation from you.

Where a Multi Day policy has expired and track days remain unused (within 365 days of the date of purchase), we will treat the policy as a Cancellation and return premium (subject to no claims). Cancellation Scale.

As defined by the BIBA Jargon Buster a "third party" is simply a person claiming against another person or body who is described as the Insured (policyholder). In insurance terminology the first party is the insurer and the second party is the insured person, so the one doing the claiming is the "third" party. Third Party can include damage to someone's property (car, armco, track, building) or bodily injury - and that is anything from minor cuts and bruises to death!

There are currently no insurers providing any third party cover to individuals, so you are taking the same risk as the next person. If someone causes serious bodily injury to you, there are no automatic rights of recovery against them and they will not have an insurer you can claim from either.

No. You have no coverage for any liability to third parties, whether personal injury/death or property. We do have an optional extension to cover armco damage (£17.50 per day). Damage is your problem and following a test ruling at Wolverhampton County Court his Honour Judge Mitchell concluded that if someone crashes into you on a track day, even if it is clearly their fault - then tough! The judgement followed a case where a driver under tuition collided with a track day participant who then sued for damages. In essence the judge's ruling is that anyone participating on a track day is aware of the potential risks involved and has a choice of not driving on to the circuit. (Source: Circuitdriver.com, April 2007). The disclaimers that are signed do have a bearing on the acceptance of the fact that everyone on the track has VOLUNTEERED to be there is the first place. No one is making you or anyone else get out there, and no one is encouraging you to drive beyond speed you feel comfortable with. Race circuits are however an alien environment and can feel strange and wide. Open circuits like Silverstone can actually feel quite pedestrian - until it all starts going wrong. So, take responsibility for yourself, protect yourself, and your machinery. Click on the link if you specifically want to understand more with regards to Nürburgring Insurance.

Possibly you are embarking on a PUBLIC day or what the Germans call Touristenfahrten. The "rules" are very different regarding third party cover for The 'Ring if it is a private TRACK DAY as opposed to a PUBLIC DAY. For more comprehensive details specifically on Nurburgring Third Party Insurance click here.

Probably not! Ask your insurers. Increasingly, policies specifically exclude track days. If your road insurers state they will cover track days, make sure you understand if there are any restrictions pertaining to (1) circuits covered (2) organisers (3) number of days you are covered for. Make sure they explain the extent of cover and that you understand where there may be limitations.

Will an accident on a track day affect my NCB? Different insurers will have different answers to this. Do not be afraid of asking your road insurer "where do I stand with my NCB / policy renewal in the event I have an accident on a track day?"

There is an increased "risk" for starters, but also on a track day you are driving / riding outside of all the "norms" of the public highway. Speed limits, cornering speeds, braking distances etc are all exaggerated in the quest for your day of fun and speed outside of the usual framework of regular highway driving. This effectively removes the comfort of the "known" factors for insurers.

No. The insurers on our track day policies are not part of the regular motor insurance market. Cover is basic and claims are not handled in the same way as road risks policies.

We can cover circuits and airfields within the UK & Europe that may be used for Track Days. Dangerous circuits like Castle Combe, Goodwood, Oulton Park and Nurburgring do carry increased premiums and/or excesses. Restrictions exist where Vehicle Recovery may be required.

We require you hold a valid DVLA licence for the road. The website will not automatically permit insurance for those over 70 years of age, but we can still help so please call us in this respect. We will usually issue a formal endorsement (£30) where we are making policy exceptions. Additional Drivers are NOT automatically covered.

We can cover individuals domiciled in England, Scotland, Wales, Denmark or Sweden. This can be on any circuits within Europe.

We can cover cars that belonging to another person or company - but you must make this known on your on-line form. We do not provide policies that are insuring an excess of another insurer's policy.

No. The information you have provided to us will only be held by us and the insurers we use for the purpose of the policy(ies) of insurances you arrange through ourselves.

Insurers will pay up to the sum insured under the policy less the policy excess and you are liable for all costs over and above this amount.

If insurers have paid for any replacement parts, they have the right to retain the damaged parts as salvage. Likewise, if the insurers have paid out on the basis of a total loss, they have the right to retain all salvage. Where the sum insured is limited or restricted to a value less than the market value insurers retain the rights to dispose of the salvage. Any proceeds will be shared proportionately less 10% for insurers expenses.

No. Insurers may ask that two estimates are obtained and they use a panel of repairers from which they may choose a company depending on make and model and location, price etc.
