Tom,
Does VIR or NCM offer any insurance a student can purchase for this event to insure against total loss of a student vehicle while on track? I would like to get something on a per event basis, since I don't plan to do very many HPDE's. There is only 1 place I know to get total loss insurance that applies to HPDE, and is applicable for a year at cost that is steep if you are only doing 1 event.
Thanks,
Andy

VIR nor the NCM are in the insurance business.
Check your personal auto insuracne policy for 'exlusions.'
At one time Ameican Collectors Insurance offered insurance for DEs.

All the standard auto policies (and yeah, I checked my wording) exclude HPDE's now. Language varies, but they all have the same idea (varies by state--might just me MD where I live--but I can't move just to fix that!!)
Let me know if anything changes!

They may have cancelled. Our talks with the track managment indicate that VIR CLub Memebers are there. May be one is north the other is south course.
I get exhausted after three days on track.

Hopefully, Rob Root (aka Jake) and I are on the list Tom!
SCMC does have South on the weekend. NASA-MA has North on the weekend.
we will be looking for rooms, and roommates, apparently for a long stay at VIR...

Tom, since the track is larger, the run groups will be a little larger on VIR, won't they?
That means more people can attend, huh?

Some clubs will put 40 to 50 cars on VIR Full, not us.
We use the 10-13 car / mile guide. This also give us some wiggle room to move some one up or down a run group without crowding.
