Yup.. Read your policy.. Ask for a copy of all exlusions... then look into buying Track Day or DE insurance. Not cheap.. Usually 10% of the value of the car, plus a deductible (most people mention in the $5k range) then have fun.

More and more Ins Cos are wising up.. Adding vague, but arguable language like "practicing for speed events" or "at a racetrack or venue designed for racing" etc.

Or, you could be lucky.. have an incident, the company covers you (once) before you know it, no renewal allowed without a gross rate adj, or dropped all together.

Another reason why you see lots of cheap ass Porsches at the track. A full on 944 racecar can be had for under $10k and its "self insured"...

To others, the rewards of track driving far outweigh the risks.
