Using that arguement they could deny you warranty coverage "for pushing your car hard" through the canyons while commuting to work.

Then they could define "hard" as anything over 5k RPM.

So they think they can deny you coverage for going to a "performance driving event/education" with what they call themselves a "high performance automobile"?

That sounds like they are saying - "Dont you dare get any training on how to drive our car in the way that we intended it, or else"

WHY do you suppose the insurance companies warrant that type of activity? Because they were challenged on it and it IS considered "normal use" to get education in how to drive your car. In fact I have heard of people who get traffic tickets TOLD to take a Driver's Education Course hich includes hands on training in your vehicle.
Can the company refuse warranty work if the car breaks while at a "Driver's education course" just because they teach you how to recover from loss of control when hydroplaning?
