You're probably right. Just move on because it's not worth your time.

I agree that you should get AAA, it's great.
But I myself and several people I know go to the track several times a year to spectate when we arent driving. So if you are at an event spectating, and your car has a problem, they wont cover it????? Sounds like you should be ripping someone IMO.

Doesn't surprise me that the RA doesn't cover this. Most any insurance nowadays, except specialized track insurance, does not cover anything relative to tracks.

porsche has been very good so far as far as warranty coverage when things break at the track. but there seems to be a disconnect between them and RA.

Unfortunately, into the tire barrier on the Corkscrew at Laguna Seca. AAA towed from the parking lot to Redwood City (DEVEK, at the time). They flatbedded me all the way, no add'l charge. I don't know about the three year "waiting" period mentioned above, but AAA Plus provides 100 mile limit.

i'll just take it fwiw and then maybe in a year i get bumped to AAA+ status.

Out of principal I'd call my CC company and dispute the charge and tell them the whole story - you have RA on your new Porsche, it had a problem, they said "no charge to the nearest dealer", you agreed, and they charged. Open and shut. I hate just sucking up on anything and figure if we all did that, the world would be chaos
