Saw an R8 V10 Plus in Suzuka Grey Metallic today. It was stunning. I wish that color was offered on the GT3. Car was epic. That was my other go to also.

Hagerty is saying like $1800 online. I have insurance through another provider for day to day insurance, but almost $2k for 1 day novice track time? They say "3 days coverage" but this is kinda wack. The track day is like $340, then you spend 7x that for insurance? Ridiculous!

get yourself into a more advanced grouping and you won’t need insurance anymore (because you won’t have to worry about a day 1 driver trying to play daniel ric and rear ending you.) As long as you generally keep it facing in the right direction, the aggregate premiums saved will more than cover a minor mishap.

Thats ridiculous. At that price, it pretty much makes tracking pretty prohibitive if you’re insisting on coverages at least to me.

10% of cars value for multiple days is average.
