Your auto insurance coverage at HPDE events can vary widely between different carriers. Some insurance carriers provide zero coverage whatsoever at any "race track facility". Some will provide coverage when participating in non-competitive educational events such as ours in accordance with your normal "street" policy. Some provide coverage for events at race tracks only with a rider or additional charge.It is your responsibility to check with your individual agent or insurance company in advance of participating in any event to be sure you are satisfied with the level of coverage you will have while participating.AutoInterests is partnered with Lockton Motorsports for HPDE Insurance coverage. If you are at all concerned about your level of insurance coverage at the track we strongly suggest you consider purchasing a policy that guarantees your coverage.Learn more & purchase HPDE vehicle insurance coverage through Lockton Motorsports.
