Many of you saw the post about my Road Atlanta incident and asked that I report back on my experience with OpenTrack. Thankfully, it was a story with a good ending. The car was declared a total loss and I received my full insured amount of 175k, less the 5% deductible. It took about a month, start to finish, for the process to play out. Even though it seemed pretty clear I would get the full amount, I am relieved to have closure going into the holidays. I'd highly recommend OpenTrack based on my experience over the past few years.
If anyone is interested, I have some parts that I had replaced on the car that I will be selling, along with some track related items. I'll eventually post in the marketplace, but I first have to get the parts back from my race shop so I can take pics. If you are in the Atlanta area and are interested in a local pickup for any of these, send me a PM. I've got the OEM CCB's and rotors, the OEM standard wheels, the center lock torque wrench, an Antigravity Lithium Ion RS-30 battery, and a Solo2 DL and Smartcam2 HD setup. Hoping to take some of the sting out of the additional investments I had made in the car!
Glad you are safe, and that everything worked out for you. Good to know that Open Track stood by you as well! A month given the circumstances seems quite reasonable. I use them too, so this is very reassuring.
great to hear about Open Track. I use them for my vehicles, I have the 12 month unlimited policy which makes sense given I track a lot. Was curious to hear an actual story about how things turn out in a situation like yours.. thanks for posting, have good holidays.
Sounds like could have been much worse!
You don't mind me asking, what is typical cost of track insurance for 1 day for gt3?
depends on your insured amount and percentage deductible chosen.
but typically $450-550 for the day.
some track insurance companies will only insure per event (be it 2 or 3 days). i've paid 550-650 for an event weekend.
to the OP: i'm glad that the process seem fairly straightforward. I wonder if this utilization will impact future premiums or insurance eligibility going forward.
RM THANKS for the update , and Thanks to Open Track for standing behind their product and good to hear as a Open Track customer .Heads up for those of you that need to be Open Track customers as foolish to be uninsured on a track day , So DE Champs here always good to support ones family so to speak .
