The ways it sounds, I think they will but there gonna give you a really hard time about it and I do believe they dont have to cover anything if the damage is caused to you racing. IDK how they would find out, but they usually do.

if it seems too good to be true, you better pinch yourself quick bc it probably isn't, try going down there and talking to them... be firm but calm

+1, forget the warranty. you will never be able to heavily mod the car or the warranty is out the window and you just gave $2,400 or whatever it was away for free.
