[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1002685, member: 3828"] Sorry to throw a [I]serious [/I]question in amongst all this good levity, but... I've never done a track day before (yet) but have definitely considered it for the obvious reasons. If (or when) one "wads it up" like this, what are the odds that an insurance company would be parting with any of [I]their [/I]money to cover it? One of the biggest reasons I've not yet done one (track day) is this very concern. I realize that it is probably safer riding at 10/10ths on a track than at ~ 8/10ths on the street, and I am totally convinced that there is a lot for this wimpy rider to learn from doing that, but my financial situation and moth bitten wallet could not withstand the blow of a total loss on any one of my bikes. So what is the straight scoop? Do you have to buy special insurance for a track day or what? What about on a new, out of the box BMW liter bike? Was this guy just too rich to care? [/QUOTE]
