YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, WE HAVE ANSWERS

OpenTrack answers your most commonly asked questions.
Will OpenTrack cover me for competitive events?

No.  OpenTrack provides coverage for non-competitive track time exclusively. Competitive events, including warm-up laps, qualifying, wheel-to-wheel racing, etc. are not eligible under our physical damage or liability policies.

 

NOTICE:  We have partnered with an alternative carrier outlet that allows us to offer coverage in their program for competitive track-driving exposures. If you’d like to discuss your particular situation, give us a call at 612-601-1034.

Are professional driving coaches and instructors covered while they're operating my car on track?

Yes.  Instructors are considered ‘Covered Drivers’ under the Physical Damage policy while they are driving your vehicle for the purpose of instructing you.  This protection extends for the Physical Damage coverage only.

Does OpenTrack offer liability coverage?

Yes. OpenTrack is the only track-day insurance provider that offers individual track liability coverage to drivers, for both property damage and bodily injury.

Does liability coverage follow the car or the driver?
OpenTrack's liability policy follows you, the driver, regardless of which vehicle you drive on track. Our quoting system requires you to enter one vehicle to get a quote, but that vehicle does not appear on the policy. Coverage follows the driver.
What does your liability policy cover, and what limits are available?

OpenTrack’s liability coverage protects you if you cause property damage or bodily injury to someone else external to vehicle you’re operating—including track-owned property. 

We offer $1M or $2M coverage on both our single-event and annual products.

Does OpenTrack insure Ferraris?

Due to a surge in Ferrari claims and the resulting high costs, we faced profitability challenges over several consecutive years. As a result, we had to exclude Ferraris from eligibility in our proprietary programs, both single-event and annual.

 

NOTICE:  We have partnered with an alternative carrier outlet that allows us to provide coverage for Ferraris in their program, encompassing both non-competitive and competitive track-driving exposures. If you’d like to discuss your particular situation, give us a call at 612-601-1034.

Can a driver insure a vehicle they do not own?

No. OpenTrack requires that the primary driver/policyholder have an insurable interest in the vehicle being insured. Our policy-rates are not accurate for other scenarios.

 

NOTICE:  For vehicle-owners who are renting their cars to other drivers (i.e. Arrive-and-Drive), OpenTrack may be able to offer tailored coverage in our Annual Unlimited program. Additional underwriting and unique pricing would be necessary. Please reach out to discuss further at 612-601-1034.

What happens if I change my vehicle(s) in the middle of my annual policy term?

There is no premium-adjustment for swapping one car for another that is equal or lesser value (i.e. coverage limit) during the policy-term. 


If you add another vehicle that is equal or lesser value than the highest-limit vehicle, we charge $150 (plus taxes and fees) for the year.

 

If you add another vehicle that is a higher limit than your current coverage, we simply pro-rate the increased premium due for the remaining time on the policy term plus $150 per year for the additional vehicle.

Are OpenTrack's underwriters financially sound?

Physical Damage & Liability policies are underwritten by Texas Insurance Company, a member of North American Casualty Group, "A" rated (Excellent) by AmBest

Why are taxes & fees applied with the premium?

Because track-day protection requires specialized coverage, OpenTrack's programs are underwritten by an Excess and Surplus (E&S) lines insurance carrier. These carriers provide tailored solutions for unique or high-risk exposures that standard insurers often decline to cover. However, this flexibility comes with additional costs, as E&S policies are subject to surplus lines taxes and fees. It's important to note that E&S programs are still regulated by state authorities to ensure consumer protection and compliance. The specific charges vary by state.

Does OpenTrack cover international tracks and events?

Our single-event program provides coverage for track-days at over 110 tracks throughout the United States. Visit our covered tracks page to verify if your desired track is eligible for coverage.

 

For OpenTrack Annual Unlimited members, automatic coverage is extended to all of our covered tracks across the United States and Canada.

It’s important to be aware that making adjustments that result in increased coverage, such as raising coverage limits or adding vehicles, will require payment for the additional premium.

 

Reducing coverage will not lead to a refund or a reduction in your monthly payment obligation.

How do I add or remove a vehicle?

Visit your account dashboard to make changes to your fleet. Vehicles may be added for $150 each (plus taxes and fees). If the vehicle being added exceeds the value of the highest-value car on the policy, you must pay the difference in premium. Removing a vehicle will not result in returned premium.

You can edit your contact details directly on your account dashboard.

How do I renew my annual policy?

Simple, straightforward billing.
What are my payment options?

Annual members can choose to pay in full or make monthly payments toward their policy. Members who pay in full save 50% on their deductible. Payments can be made via credit card, debit card, or ACH.

How do I cancel my policy?
Annual Policies
OpenTrack’s annual policies are fully earned at inception. Midterm cancellations will not result in prorated refunds. If you are on our monthly payment plan, you are responsible for paying the remainder of your 12 month term.

On-Demand Policies
OpenTrack’s on-demand policies are non-refundable. However, they may be moved to a different date. This must be done prior to 12:01 am on the day of policy inception. You can move your policy to another date (up to 30 days ahead of your policy’s effective date) by logging into your account and selecting “Request Change” from your policy page.

If your event was cancelled the morning of, you can request to have your policy moved to a different date by emailing a letter from the event organizer showing the event never took place to help@opentrack.com.
What happens if I stop paying my monthly premium?

Our monthly payment plan requires an annual commitment. Failure to make monthly payments will result in the early termination of your policy. You may also be ineligible to secure future coverage from OpenTrack.

Repairs can be performed at your preferred shop. Our claims team will work with them directly to get you back on track ASAP. Do not let the shop start repairs until authorized by our claims representatives
Can I still access coverage after a claim?

Accidents happen. Unlike other track insurance providers, we will still insure you after you submit a claim. You will see a couple of policy changes following your first claim:

 

—Vehicle deductible increases to 15%
—10% surcharge added to the base premium

 

The changes above remain for two years. If you have a second claim with OpenTrack you will no longer be eligible for coverage.

OTHER THINGS TO KNOW

Are there age requirements?
Drivers must be 25 or older to secure coverage.
How is vehicle value determined?

OpenTrack drivers self-select coverage at their vehicles' stated value. We ask that you value each of your vehicles as close to replacement cost as possible. Your accuracy will keep you protected at the most affordable rates possible and help us avoid future rate increases.

Will you insure a vehicle with a salvaged title?
No. We cannot offer coverage for salvaged title cars.
I still have questions. How can I find answers?
