When I inquired about it from my previous carrier,
they told me that if in fact I wanted to start autoxing my car, I
had to tell them. Shortly thereafter, I got a policy
cancellation letter.
=================================
And which evil, bad, corrupt, self-serving, gluttonous, greedy, lying,
cheating, thieving company would that have been?
I called several State Farm (my current company) agents to inquire about
coverage rates for my 1998 Neon. As non-chalantly as I could I worked in
the "oh by the way, I'm thinking about participating in some Solo2 events"
and would I be covered in the event of a Solo related accident to my Neon.
After VERY carefully phrasing my wording (per the prologue in the Solo2
rulebook) of what I "was thinking about doing", 9 out of 10 agents said that
they would indeed pay a claim. Agent # 10 said that he wouldn't pay.
Later, I called my personal agent (been with him since I started driving in
'85 and he's got my renter's & life insurance as well) and he said that they
would pay the claim but they most certainly would not be happy about it. He
did not mention getting cancelled after a claim, but then again he probably
wouldn't.
Not official, but his word is good enough for me. I also inquired about
"lapping days" or a High Performance Car Control Clinic (just like in the
latest Sportscar issue) type events and (whining and bitching) they would
cover that as well.
So, what other good-guy, Solo-friendly insurance companies are there out
there?
