I suspect that most cars are not insured. I was never.
But I've read that some people use CCI. Fully read the T&C as excess can be significant.

Manning UK do track cover as part of their TVR policies. I think Richard Egger might from do memory too.

It's not that uncommon as an option on specialist sports car insurance.

I've never had track insurance, but then my car was never very high value. Heard all sorts of horror stories from the guys that work at the tracks about people in their new 911 Turbos who have banged them up pretty bad etc.

I'd say it's worth it if you've got a car worth something, and you're at a track with armco! Something like Brands Hatch or Bedford is pretty safe (but in saying that, there's still a spot of wall/armco in both that you could hit if you were unlucky...

Most cars run without insurance. Some regular companies do allow you a set number of days per year. Otherwise i'd advise trying competition car insurance:

they insure a mate on his elise and its all very good value for 4 days per year. The 'Ring is excluded.
