Yeah he does . Sounds like he has policy specific he sales.
Always best to just call your current provider and confirm. As I mentioned you fill find that most normal full coverage, 98% of the people on here, competition events are not covered.

Time to tow it to a back street...claim hit n run
now if only there wasn't video spreading like wildfire that it was actually facked up at the track...
Hope he had proper coverage, or else that's gonna hurt in the wallet.
In the old days a guy lost it on some oil at the top end of the track and rolled his car.... He walked away. But the car was destroyed, rumor was he paid tow truck driver 1k to lose the car somewhere... And claimed it stolen.... Rumor had it any way....
That's the same gtr that almost got taken out by the vette on the highway. He's having a bad time at tx2k15 it seems
Wow, what a shame! Stuff happens unfortunately, on and off the track. He must have tossed his helmet 100 yards. LOL. If he has to absorb the cost, that is HUGE!
Man that was a wierd accident as well. What happen to the RX7 ? It looks like he just locked up or something......At that speed no way to avoid it. EVen if he would have kept going, the RX7 would have clipped his rear.
It used to be that policy wording on auto policies was such that you would be covered in educational style events like an HPDE. Anything times however became competitive and was not covered. More recently, insurers have adopted "racing surface" wording which pretty much precludes any coverage if your car is on a race track, regardless of what you're doing.
Now there are companies that provide coverage for racing and lapping events, both drag, auto-x and road course.
Each season if I know I'm going to be doing lapping events, I choose the ones I want, then purchase a policy for those events through Lockton.

Ugh..rotary's/rx-7's, i have never been to a track and seen one make a single solitary clean ****ing pass.. just loud as **** usually stuffed in an old corolla shell.. loud annoying 45 second burnout, launch, loud noise, lose traction, more loud noise, crash.. or.. loud noise, launch, bang @ half track, silence, dragging oil down track. never fails.
but im glad no one was hurt but his helmet.

Nailed it
Dusten you are correct, one of the owners of our local 1/8th mile had insurance on all 7 of his cars, it was special drag racing insurance.
Hey at least his helmet was not damaged..
Yeah I wanna see the rest, looked like it was about to get interesting....
I have a front bumper cover for him....an I do but that does suck..if you want to make an insurance claim get it towed off the track to your house then tell them you hit a guardrail and it is back at your house..tell them you aaa towed it and no tow bill..insurance companies always pay for stupid..i know I am an insurance adjuster...
Running the risk of them seeming this video and hitting you for insurance fraud is not a gamble I would be willing to take.
