Kophill Hillclimb. - flywheel1935 - 20-09-2022 I,m off to the Kophill Hillclimb this coming w/end to do the Austin 7 Parade. Just been sent an email for 'additional insurance ???'. its a Closed Road climb, but the return to the paddock is public roads, I,ve done it several times before & never had to consider this addition, a call to RH is probably next ? Who else is going ??? RE: Kophill Hillclimb. - Ian Wegg - 20-09-2022 I'm at the event but not in my Austin 7. I shall be going up the hill on Saturday morning as a passenger in a Hispano Suiza. RE: Kophill Hillclimb. - Nick Salmon - 20-09-2022 To my knowledge, the return road from the top of the hill during the event has always been 'public' and therefore requiring road use insurance. RE: Kophill Hillclimb. - flywheel1935 - 20-09-2022 Hi Nick, that's my point. My Ruby has normal insurance with RH and has for the past 31 years, why buy more ??? RE: Kophill Hillclimb. - stuartu - 20-09-2022 If the event does not require a RS licence, I think it is certainly worth asking RH if you are covered for the "closed road" part of the event. I would be interested to know the answer. It is unlikely that you would run over a spectator on the closed section but the last time it happened at Kop there was something of a fuss.... Regards, Stuart RE: Kophill Hillclimb. - flywheel1935 - 20-09-2022 Having just spoken to RH. the cars are NOT covered for the 'closed' part of the road ie the climb its self, but are covered while returning to the paddock via the 'public highway' They will cover the closed part for £65 + £1000 excess, There will be a 40 car Austin 7 'parade' up the hill, so not likely to be too fast ????? RE: Kophill Hillclimb. - stuartu - 20-09-2022 Thank you, useful to know. A matter for the individual to decide how he feels about risks on the closed road section. Regards, Stuart RE: Kophill Hillclimb. - flywheel1935 - 20-09-2022 As the 'Closed' road part of the climb is only about a mile at about 8 degrees slope, and I will be in the 'Parade' then I will pass on Extra insurance. Kop themselves will insure at £25, or £12.50p//mile ( I,m going twice) RE: Kophill Hillclimb. - Duncan Grimmond - 21-09-2022 There should be some BSA FWD examples there... too far away for me though. RE: Kophill Hillclimb. - Charles Levien - 21-09-2022 I have just been quoted £72.15 by ERS — additional premium covering the two days. So I have emailed Bob Woodman ( organiser) to see what the cost will be to insure with Reis Motorsport Insurance, at sign in. Am inclined to go with them if it’s appreciably less. I’ve done Kop Hill w/e a few times now and never given this a thought before. Charles |
