How bad can Z06 owners fuck up their car before Chevy will refuse to fix something? Suppose I can't drive stick for crap, if I trash the clutch or synchros at the track, does Chevy honor* the warranty?
Doesn't matter what the advertisements/marketing says, what matters is what the warranty says. This is directly from the GM warranty applicable to all vehicles.

Notice that it is not limited to "racing" but any type of competition.

•Collision, fire, theft, freezing, vandalism, riot, explosion, or objects striking the vehicle.
•Misuse of the vehicle such as driving over curbs, overloading, racing, or other competition. Proper Vehicle use is discussed in the Owner’s Manual.
•Alteration, modification, or tampering to the vehicle, including, but not limited to the body, chassis, powertrain, driveline, software, or other components after final assembly by GM.
•Coverages do not apply if the odometer has been disconnected, its reading has been altered, or mileage cannot be determined.
•Installation of non-GM (General Motors) parts.
•Water or fluid contamination.
•Damage resulting from hail, floods, windstorms, lightning, and other environmental conditions.
•Alteration of glass parts by application of tinting films.


Important: This warranty is void on vehicles currently or previously titled as salvage scrapped, junked, or otherwise considered a total loss.
