golf cart insurance ?
 
I was told that you are suppose to have insurance on your golf carts at NHRA division & national events.Is this fact or fiction? never heard that before,but could see it being required with all the stupid stuff that goes on at the race track pits,especially at night.just wanted to get ready for next year if that is true.

i'm not positive on this , but at nationals I think the insurance you purchase with your entry covers your pit vehicle , they include a pass with your credentials.
at div 1 races we have to register our pit vechicles , you can purchase insurance at that time thru nhra, or provide proof of your own coverage,

yeah, it could be a div 1 thing. maybe we east coast guys just donate our hard earned $.
One bad accident happened at the bracket finals one year, guys clowning around one guy got hurt real bad, even tried to sue nhra, the track, and the driver. He and the golf cart driver still run around on their carts fast as they can go, cost us all a lot of $ but they don't seem to give a crap!
Oh btw. that guy is on disability now, does not work, and drives an 8 sec car....

anybody know what the cost of this insurance is from NHRA-VS a policy you by from another source? it is a off road vehicle.

they were within 20 bucks, and it was easier just to get it at track. at least in div 1 you can go to any nhra sanctioned track and fill out form, give them 50. and you are done...

Went outside NHRA to Progressive, same money but double the coverage and good anywhere not just at the track.

I insure mine through my auto insurance company with a separate policy. It wasn't much more than what they want, and I have full coverage on it, not just liability.

Gary,
Seeing your golf cart parked on 53rd street last week explains why you have the added coverage. I know, things are getting tough buddy!!!
