6b. mileage and testing
Once the car is assembled and ready for testing and/or calibrations, the car will log miles on the odometer. Drive cycles, break-in cycles, heat cycles, and dyno testing may need up to 2000 (two thousand) miles to complete the build. Client understands and agrees to the necessity of mileage and gives permission to M3P to put miles on the client's car. Clients will maintain proper vehicle insurance, vehicle registration, and license plates up to date so that M3P can conduct roadworthy testing on the client's car when necessary. If and when closed-course testing is needed, the client will be informed when and if this will be conducted. All client vehicles are covered under Mega 3’s garage liability insurance policy that protects the vehicle from fire, theft, and damage while in possession or under operation of Mega 3. The garage liability policy will not cover a client’s vehicle if damage is caused by another motorist, acts of God/nature outside of M3P’s facility, or if the vehicle is struck by an animal and/or debris during road or course operation.
