Yes, insurance decision based on the video, on the basis that the marshalls were letting this happen, so may be this poor at ALL events.alicrozier wrote: Thanks John, good work.
I assume the the insurance decision has been made on a perception of risk from the vid, not from any safety statistics or insurance claims.
I would be happy to write a letter confirming the excellent and safe standard of SIDC trackdays (and even HM) if that helps.
In the meantime there must be some sort of discount for you if Knockhill are not on the insurers acredited list...
Still not convinced by KH's answer about the tyre barriers, even if the MSA nonsense is correct. IMO if an insurer saw them he would be even less likely to give insurance.
Letter - would be great if you could, though I'd be tempted to wait to see what happens with their current investigations.
Tyres - not convinced about the MSA stuff either, but perhaps there was an inspection at some point. I can't remember many corners on other circuits where it is possible to take huge short-cuts through some of the corners (either big gravel traps or armco) - and it may not be done for safety reasons, but possibly to prevent cheating. If one person does it, then all racers will try it....
I've already tried for a discount, as we were below break even point on Monday. Now looking like we'll have just enough to cover our costs
