    Just by posting you're probably worse off than you are with someone seeing your license plate #
    True, and then it'll come up in search results so they can see how he's boasting nobody can find him

          This. A guy I know that helps run a local car club that holds most of the autoX's I do, was dropped from his insurance when they found out he autoX's. Thankfully at the time my insurance agent was an avid road racer, and was very cool with my dad's/my interest in racing.

            What company?

            If it's a big deal, why not just remove the plates when racing? You don't need them then and then there's no chance of anyone linking your tags to your track photos. Takes 2 mins...

                  What part of my post are you referring to? My old/my parents agent was with state farm, honestly don't remember what the other guy had that was dropped.

                  I honestly don't worry that much about it. I think they found out from his name being posted with results online, not from a liscense plate. But that's why that group only posts your first name and last initial when they post results now.
