Uhmm I had a CEL and coil failure at the track. Dealer fixed it under warranty, they knew it happened at the track. The local SOA rep has seen my car at Mastro Subaru so he knows it's usage also if anything ever gets to him.

Track usage does involve longer periods of high loads than a street car does obviously, but I wouldn't consider that abusive. Anyone who is fast at the track isn't going to be rough and abusive to the trans/driveline/etc either. :shrug:
