I am thinking about taking the Advanced Performance Driving Course at Silverstone Grand Prix circuit as advertised in TVR sprint. September edition page 6 and October edition page 30.
The thing is my current insurer (Mannings, which I have TVR organised track days with) will not cover this event as it is not a TVR track day.
I phoned up one insurer today (forget who) and they wanted £230 for full value of the car cover or £130 for £10000 damage cover, both with £2000 excess.
I thought this to be a bit steep for a days insurance. My question is does anybody know of some competitive track day insurers that would insure me for this day?

Thanks in advance Grouch.

Must call them and see what they'd do on mine...

I'd want about 35K cover..
