Do I need race car insurance?

I’m getting into racing and I’m preparing to buy my first car. Will I have to get insurance for it or can I drive it without insurance?

Yes, it’s a good idea to get race car insurance before you hit the track. If you’ll only be driving the vehicle for races, you can opt for a policy that
only covers you on racing days
. That way, you’re not paying for year-round coverage that you don’t need.
To learn more about your options for insuring your race car, you’ll need to contact your insurer to discuss the specifics of your expected racing schedule. They can help you find the best policy option for your needs.
