Sure, it’s possible to enjoy this hobby on your own. You can go for spirited drives by yourself, run solo laps at your local track, or spend long hours in the garage working on the object …
You forgot to mention not putting a group of newbies on a work crew together with no instruction and expecting any kind of results.
In reply to zordak :
I'm the autocross chairman for a BMW CCA chapter and after some debacles because of not accounting for this, I now only pair noobs with folks who have a decent amount of experience and assign work duties by name (this also helps to determine who failed to show for their work assignment).
Getting insurance is not trivial. Tracks do a good job of codifying the requirements, finding a carrier for this is not easy. Does anyone have a lead for insuring track days that are not run by an organization?

Necro thread, but have you tried asking the track? They can probably point you in the right direction of carriers that they've worked with in the past.
