Tire wall repair came to 900$. The insurance paid for it! 👍

Wow! I think your insurance north of the border is better than ours!

At COTA they tell you in the driver's mtg if you slide off the track and hit the Safer Barrier (you'd have to go thru grass, gravel, and more grass to get to the SB) the first person on the scene will not be a safety worker. It'll be a track employee with a bill for the repair of the barrier. :eek

It would be interesting to know if Locton or Hagerty would pay for barrier damage.

Haha! In my case, the track billed my club, Rennsport, who paid it. Rennsport sent me the bill which I forwarded to my insurer who paid directly to the club.

.....okay this gave me Old Mosport in the cold rain chills. Ahhh rain was the only way I could keep up and stay ahead but people around me not feathering the throttle over the dry line was intense while driving a car with sentimental value.

White is a tricky stage for sure. Glad you are injury free!!! I never had insurance and was unaware of the mod rule.

Just curious if you are going to track this one or going to a dedicated track machine? I
