Have you ever thought about getting a group together and putting some money aside in a "general fund" to help out with repair costs?
I know that I would just be devastated if I wrecked my car and had no insurance to cover my losses.
Someone once told me (actually I have heard this a bunch of times) "Don't track, what you can't lose."
Any material loss is sad. One just has to decide how much he/she is willing to risk.
Maybe we will be seeing more 944NA, 912, 914, 924, and older 911 on the track.
