This looks like it would be fun, but I don't see anything about their passing rules. Is it point by or anything goes?

Great way to spend a day - too bad it is so far away. Hope everyone that goes has a safe and fun track day.

No passing in beginner and intermediate groups - experienced groups can pass ‘on straights with a point.’ I’m in the inter group...

I'm curious- how much does track day insurance typically run on a C5?

From my experience in Canada, it will vary but example would be $600 give or take with insurance company and model of car. Usually track days that are properly regulated are safe, hence why I asked about rules. As long as its point by passing and you're a good driver you probably can get away without insurance, but again anything can happen. Any fuckups I've see has always been the driver getting overzealous and not having enough track experience.

I use Lockton and with a stated value of 28,000 and a 10% deductible my premium is usually around 225.00 for an event regardless if it's 2 or 3 days.

And yes anything can and does happen in his hobby! So I suggest you get the insurance .
