HPDE Protection Plans protect your event REGISTRATION COST.

This is NOT on-track insurance and does NOT cover your vehicle in any way.  HPDE Protection Plans provide NO coverage of ANY kind for accidents/damage that occur at the track.

The above image is an overview of the plan's benefits. For full details and explanations, see each situation's section below:

Weather

Weather:

  • An "official" electronic rain gauge will be on-site at all events in the paddock to determine the coverage levels outlined below.  In the event of a malfunction, damage or tampering with the rain gauge, data from the nearest National Weather Service station will be used to determine weather coverage eligibility.

  • A $50 credit will be provided if .10" to .25" of rain is measured on the official rain gauge during hot track hours.

  • A credit of 50% of your original registration amount paid will be provided if more than .25" of rain is measured on the official rain gauge during hot track hours.

  • A credit of 50% of your original registration amount paid is provided if lightning causes a track closure for more than a 1 hour cumulative total in a single day (not including any adjustment of lunch breaks to avoid impacting on-track sessions, and regardless of which run groups were impacted).

  • NO coverage is provided should extreme weather circumstances or Acts of God occur that cause substantial delays or cancellation of an event such as tornadoes or other "circumstances beyond our control" as defined in the Refund, Purchasing and Cancellation Policy even if those situations are combined with weather conditions that would otherwise be covered.

Credits eligible to be received under an HPDE Protection Plan are NOT automatically issued. In all cases, proper documentation must be provided along with a completed claim form within 14 days of event date. It is the driver's responsibility to file a claim form in a timely manner in order to receive the benefits of an HPDE Protection Plan. All claims received past the 14 day deadline will be rejected.

No credits will be issued for any circumstances that do not specifically provide for coverage as defined above.

Any credits issued that are based on a percentage of registration fees paid are less any coupons/discounts and pro-rated to a per-day rate for multi-day registrations, Track Packs or Season Passes.

In ALL cases, any benefits provided by approved claims under HPDE Protection Plans are in the form of AutoInterests store credits ONLY and are NEVER "cash" refunds of any kind (including credits to credit card accounts or the issuance of bank checks).  Store credits issued under approved HPDE Protection Plan claims are redeemable ONLY toward future AutoInterests HPDE registrations, not toward merchandise or any other products/services.

HPDE Protection Plans can be purchased at time of event registration OR can be purchased separately.
