wasn't sure if this was new thread worthy 
 *Edit* 
 okay did find a small post about insurance,  it just said not all polocies cover events, and not to lie about it afterwards ,  insurance fruad.  but nothing about additional insurance .. ?
(Thanks again for the info btw )  
 
   Do you need to buy special race / auto cross insurance ?    does my normal full coverage insurance cover auto X events ?     I'm not 100% sure i want to just call them up and ask if they cover auto Cross / races,   cuase then they will think (well know) i'm interested in racing...    (guess they can't raise my rates/ drop me for asking)    does anyone already know this ?   i'de rather race with lots of insurance, then crash and be out of pocket.    of course i've never seen any of the courses, maybe there are no walls/ trees to hit.. ?? 
  is it april yet ?     If i really want to get into auto cross, but i want to keep my tire budget reasonable what do others recomend.   i don't mind buying 1 set of summer tires every year,  but will my  normal summer driving + auto crosses be way to much for 1 set of tires per year?  (assuming i do use dedicated winters from nov - april/ may)   do i just need to plan on needing 1 set of auto Xers per season ?  in addition to my usual tire requirements.      do others keep an extra set of rims just for auto-Xing? or do you swap your tires (or have this done) every time.  (that could really add up, and cover the cost of some cheap rims sooner or later) ... ???    should i think about getting 18's or 19's for auto x (i don't know if 19's would even fit )  any one recomand a Rim for the STI that is LIGHT and CHEAP (Just for auto-x's  i wouldn't care if its ugly or not)
