They are quite quick to reply. Their quote was very competitive, regardless of track coverage. About that, from a recent email:
"
If an accident happens on track we are able to use a plug to your car to determine how fast vehicle was traveling prior to any accident. This would advise us if you were driving over 100mph

An instructor must be in the vehicle or on the track at the time you are on it.

We will cover non-timed events in the limited track coverage."

I find this quite bizarre and borderline useless.

I just got a package in the mail today from Porsche insurance. Ill read it. With HPDE there are instructors on track. But of course a 100 mph limit helps NOBODY including, I am sure, training at the Porsche Experience center.

Correct me if I am wrong.

I agree. Such limit makes no sense. The instructor rule as well. Both seems to come from bean counters. Check you car OBD port for prior speeds, so bizarre.

Such lost venue for regular insurance to tap in, even as pay per use.
