Take care.
Liberty insurance allows track driving as long as there's no competition involved

Though I haven't checked if Wawanesa does...if not, I'll see what the difference in price is and make the change.

No need to turn this into a lease vs buy thread. I would buy the car if I planned on keeping it long, that's for sure.

I guess I'll do it mid July after Button Willow then

Good day.
I'll have to look into this

Nonetheless, I stay at beginner/low intermediate groups for a reason.
I don't want to get too aggressive, surrounded by driver's who will do reckless act for a split second improvement in time.

So far I've had great experiences . Thank you for your input
