Why?
“It’s cheap insurance.” ROAR members are covered by two ROAR insurance policies, liability and bodily injury, while participating in a ROAR sanctioned race or a practice for such a race. The club/track is an additional insured on the member policy.
Liability: This policy protects members from claims resulting from damage caused by their R/C car to spectators and others. The insurance company has the right and duty to defend the insured (member) against any suit seeking damages because of bodily injury or property damage, and pay those sums the insured becomes legally obligated to pay up to the $1 Million policy limit.
Bodily Injury: This is a "no-fault" injury policy, because it pays medical expenses if you hurt yourself in a ROAR sanctioned race up to $10,000.
A race is ROAR-sanctioned ONLY when all attending racers are ROAR members AND the host track is a ROAR track.
How much to join?
One-Year membership: $30.00
Single-Day membership: $15.00
Cost to upgrade Single-Day membership to One-Year membership at a later date: $15.00 (the same price as if you paid all at once)
Families: Immediate relatives of current members can join for only $10 per year.
