The technicality still stands that in North America, at least, they do state in the warranty "Misuse – for example, racing & competitive events, off-roading or overloading".
Now, before everybody jumps on the normal "HPDE isn't racing" bandwagon take very careful note of the use of the words "for example". Everybody likes to try to use the wording to skirt the restriction but those are only examples not the definitive list. No, HPDE is not "racing" nor "competitive" but it could still fall under there definition of misuse.
Everybody can choice to ignore that statement written clearly in the warranty but it is there. Yes, it is grey but that is on purpose.
If you want to be in the hobby of tacking then you need to be prepared to pay the costs of that hobby. The manufacturer is not responsible to cover your costs.

Yep we're both right, taking this car around a track is not competitive, doesn't mean it's misuse or you will be purposely beating the hell out of it. Thanks for reenforcing my point.
