How does the conversation with your insurance co go now that these pics and vids of you crashing on a racetrack are plastered all over the internet?

I believe all underwriters have become savvy to the term "track days". You are on your own unless you specifically obtain track insurance. It is costly. If one were to try to scam the underwriter as in: towing it to some ditch out on the highway and trying to get coverage. JAIL TIME!

That particular ZR1 was used as a 'Media Car' for GM's media presser for the Latin American Division (Mexico)...

When you play you pay. Me personally I'd want to baby the car and not risk it. However I do like seeing others do it.

After he figured out what the tab for the wrecked carbon fiber was adding up to, he called Tijuana for medical services.
