yeah wow..just recently i insured my first 240 i think a few days before christmas or after i don't remember. well i just picked up another 240 on saturday the 10th and had my geico policy switched to this 240. well it turns out, the day the first 240 was put on the policy which had the sr in it, geico sent out a letter saying that my family has been dropped from the insurance policy starting feb 18th due to confirmed racing... mother ****er, show me a damn picture of my car leaving my ****ing street and i'll pay you 10 grand. it's weird though, when my mom called to switch the insurance over to the new 240, they said alright i need the vin number and you are set..didn't say nething about being dropped. i haven't been able to call them yet due to the underwriters department being open from like 8 to 5 mon - fri. i do know insurance companies can drop anyone they want to for no reason at all, but i at least thought it would be like getting fired from a job..in virginia the law says you can be fired for a good reason or no reason at all...not for a dumb reason... i just find it really odd how they sent the letter out the day the first 240 was put on our policy...newayz, if something cannot be worked out between geico and us, will it be hard to find another insurance company due to being dropped....about a month ago we were going to switch to all-state and pay 100 dollars more w/ the 240, than what we are paying for neither 240 (just the camry and the civic). will it still be at this rate or will they be like "whoa hey, you have been dropped, **** you guys." or "u've been dropped, 2k more a year." i'm kind of venting so sorry it's written sloppy, <3, but yeah, hook me up with some input..i just find it somewhat hard to believe. oh and btw, i have a clean record..no tickets, no accidents, etc. etc.

Confirmed racing? WTF? Are there under cover insurance agents out there or what?

Perhaps they saw a "insert color" 240sx, so they sent a letter to everyone that has a 240 that looks as this

That is one nice thing about having all of your insurance with one company. They are less likely to drop you when your home owners, car, life and all other insurance that you have is with one company. They can drop you, but they will make more money on you in the end if they keep you.

I would love to know what constitutes "confirmed Racing" and how they can prove that you did it? Did you tell them that there was a car on the policy with a modified engine? Or does VA contact your insurance company when you get a ticket and disclose the details of the ticket? I know some towns in WA have resorted to this type of tactic.

That's really odd, and lame. I'll be on the lookout for Undercover Insurance Agents, even though I don't race. Bastards!
