Days like this event have a much higher chance of an idiot being let lose on track so it would mak sense to organise some insurance to cover this - expect the excess to be 50% if you can find cover.

Shame to see the blue Fiesta written off due to bad driving but unless the Focus driver offers to help with costs then no hope.

That is incorrect, after a track day crash in 2010 and the following court case, precedent has been set already see http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/t...om+a+track+day

If it went to court the Fiesta driver could win a case for damages.
