HPDE Insurance

I am considering attending BMW CCA Advanced Driving school.
It is a 2 day event and I need the insurance for it.
BMW CCA web site mentions one small insurance company, but I am not sure if I this company is serious.

I would appreciate insurance recommendations for closed track events.

I don't think it's a good idea to track the 550 xdrive. It's huge.

You are probably right DerStig, it is a heavy car.

What do you think, what kind of driving event would be appropriate ?

So what?

I've been to HPDE driving schools and seen people driving everything from SCCA ITB prepped '85 Golf GTI's to station wagons to sports cars, etc.

The best track events are the ones in YOUR car, regardless of it's capability, as that will teach you about it's limits in a safe environment.

The heavy / huge thing only means you need to factor in the cost of a set of front tires and a set of front brake pads more often depending on how often you track.

Remember, track is crack!
