What does posting your social media feed prove? Seriously, what was the intent behind it?
I'm really trying not to be insulting but it feels like there is a stubborn know it all teenager on the other side of this conversation... You're right, none of us here know anything about open passing DE's and none of us can speak from our own experiences sometimes many years worth at the highest levels, but you can tell us all why you are right post after post...
FML. Honestly if I were your coach and having a conversation like this would you I would tell you that your failure to listen and lack of ability to comprehend what you are being told are reason enough for me to never coach you and and an indicator you aren't fit for the track. I could give two craps about your insurance, your attitude sucks, point blank flat out.
You could care less about listening to anyone here all you want to do is prove you are right which isn't going to happen here so maybe take it back to social media where everyone seems to support you??? You've made this painful.

I think we can all agree that we don't want to share a track or a beer with yesyoucan.
For those of you that watched "Chernobyl," this is the guy who keeps saying there's no graphite on the ground and that an RBMK reactor cannot explode.

I just got home from a glorious, sunny day tearing up Mosport (along with my tires ) and thought I'd see how this thread was "evolving", just for the hell of it.
I've spent 2 minutes on it and now my head hurts.
Out to the garage to work on the car.
To quote the immortal VR:
MAKE IT STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think you guys are even reading the "some" in my comments or even qualified to make the statements that you guys are making. Let's leave it that all of you think that having track insurance has ZERO impact/influence to the ten's of thousands of people who have it in their track driving.
Anyways; to each his own.

Yesyoucan, I indeed know all of them. One of those you mentioned posts here occasionally. I have been on track with all of them (in car with some, not all), and I am telling you, I never had any inkling of who does and doesn't have insurance. Nor in any other groups I have ever worked with over quite a few years. Some people are ******** on track, and don't have insurance. Many people are angels on track, and do. THERE IS ZERO CORRELATION, even though you have convinced yourself to the contrary.

I'm of the opinion that SOME people will drive faster, take more risks (which can mean being right on someone's bumper) and do so with the comfort of knowing that they are covered with track insurance. Would they do this type of behavior if they didn't have track insurance?
Some of you guys are somehow thinking that I'm saying; EVERY person who has track insurance drives like an ***.
The guys that I mentioned drive 9/10's to 10/10 th because they are trying to be as fast as possible. Would they dial it back if they didn't have track insurance? umm, yes they would (fair disclosure; I am aware that both Ryan and Adam went sub-2:16 in the GT2RS and Senna at COTA. I have let both of them drive my cars at COTA and had Adam coach me and had Ryan observe my driving (He really wanted to sit in the P1 and get a drive and I tried to not embarrass myself with him).
Here is a quote from a text from one of those guys to me many, many months ago:
"Another XXX owner asked, ***** out, low fuel, fresh tires, what do you think it can do...I said get track insurance and let's do it...!"
