I rang RAC today to get a quote on the Betty as my SGIO renewal is due shortly. They asked if it had any modifications, I mentioned exhaust only and the guy asked me how much performance I had gained from that modification - he wanted a kilowatt figure! I told him that I didn't know what I had gained as factory specs are given as flywheel kw's and explained that I only know what my power is "at the hubs". I told him 185kw, he placed me on hold and had a lengthy chat with the underwriters. Oooooo-k... haven't heard of this before... he came back, said they'd insure it no worries so I queried him in regards to RAC having some form of upper limit of power that they will insure. He said no, and that it was a case by case scenario.

Anyone encountered this before with RAC or any other company?
