General Discussion / Insurance for autocross?
« Last post by MiketheSpike on April 23, 2024, 10:38:10 AM »
Hey folks, this will be my first season ever of autocross, and I'll be using an almost new vehicle to do so. I understand that your typical car insurance will not cover you if something happens to your car while you autocross, so what is everyone doing for insurance? Just rolling the dice? Just curious. I'd think the chances of getting into a collision is very very low while autocrossing, so I assume most people just don't bother, and are prepared to cover their own damages if something occurs...?? Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Free* Novice School on May 4th In Fort Macleod
*Entry to the school is free for those that have signed up for the practice event

Sign up here: https://www.motorsportreg.com/events/sasc-fort-macleod-2024-practice-airport-southern-alberta-solosport-club-424624

Are you new to autocross/performance driving or know someone that is? The SASC will be putting on a free novice school for those that sign up for our practice event on May 4th. The school will run approximately half the day, in the morning, after which all the students will be able to partake in the practice event for the remainder of the day.

The school will consist of ~1hr of basic theory in-class, followed by ~2hrs of in-car drills. The school is geared towards those new to autocross and those that have only done a few events in the past.

Important Information
- Students must have their own car (sedan, hatchback, wagon, coupe, convertible, etc.) in good mechanical working condition. SUV's, CUV's, Minivans and Trucks are not permitted with a few exceptions for Performance Based SUV's (check with us first if you're not sure). Please note that instructors reserve the right to turn away students/cars that don't have sufficient tread depth tires, have leaks, loose batteries, or are in any other way not mechanically fit.
- Two drivers can share one vehicle.
- An approved helmet (http://forums.sascsolo.com/index.php?topic=1711.0), if you don't have one, there will be a few loaner helmets available.
- Please review the information here: https://web.sascsolo.com/autocross-101/

If you have any questions feel free to ask them in this thread.
