What you say makes sense, they are in business to money. I like the two
options. But I for some reason do not think they will ever be available.
You can get a type of insurance when you rent a car for road racing. I am
not for sure how that all works out. As for people wrecking car on a road
course or autox. I know 10x that many who have done it on the street vs.
doing some type of racing fun. To me they just go a little far with the not
taking a risk, business is usually bout risk or some sort. How often do
insurance companies go out of business compared to others.
