insurance
so hagerty pretty much told me thyey wont inure me due to the nature of my car, and that i autocross it. offered me paddock and trailer insurance, but nothing else. pissed me off, really, as i had to go through a bunch only to get thyat response from them after they told me that the autocrossing wouldnt be a problem.
so, for those of you that actually autocross/drag race/ track your cars, what do you do for insurance? i know that as soon as i take it out on a hot track im not covered. i wouldnt think of making a claim if i hurt it on track. but i wont lie about my usages, either. just cant do that.
so now im shopping. i found grundy, who claims no real restrictions other than garaged, not used for work, and not covered on track. also, complete payoff in event of total loss.
what are my options, and what are your experiences? im really interested in teh after the accident stuff as well. because thats when it really matters. not what the premiums are.Michael Crawford

Haggerty's motto should be "Would you just look at that?" "Just look at it!"
Because it seems they basically only want to cover show cars.. .

Which is how they keep the rates so low. I mean I pay $359/yr for unlimited usage.

I never had to file a claim but I have been happy with Heacock.
It's pretty much covered no matter what.
For example it's covered while at a track and in the parking lot and side roads. Once on the track or drag strip it's not covered. If on the return road from making a pass down the dragstrip something happens they say it's covered.

Talk to Morgan Duffy here, he set me up with American Classic. You are covered except when you are on the track. If you want coverage while autocrossing / racing, you will need separate track insurance, and be prepared to spend some money as it isn't cheap.

One word for you
Grundy
Best rates,coverage, no mileage or horsepower restrictions.
They cover just about anything.
I paid less than 250 a year for 40k coverage
