Competition and "educational drive days" is different. Most of these events heard at tracks are purely educational, there are instructors there and at the end of the day everyone learns more about their cars and such. Most of these events have a clause which states they are educational etc
By saying what i said in first post I didnt wanna start a debate on this.. i was just showing that yea mazda has the right to void warranty if they feel it will put the car in a position to require warranty work that otherwise it would not need under normal conditions.

Otherwise, point taken. I'm not trying to argue with anyone here. Just making a few observations given how many of the regulars go to track days, etc. At the end of the day we need to decide for ourselves what risks we are prepared to run.

That said, I can see why Events O'Neill don't do it. Human nature being what it is, comparison is inevitable, shortly followed by competition.

Rexi, I'm surprised about your dealer's attitude, unless you've been coming in to them with regular MAF CELs
FWIW, I was told before last year's Nats by 'well-placed' Mazda people that they did not have too many concerns about driver education track days or lap dash events -- MA, of course, ran themselves as part of the 8's marketing campaign. Nor did they have any real worries about mods such as exhausts (but not cats) or properly developed CAIs. I think the logic is there's not much to be gained anyway
Where they did have concerns relates (a) to drag racing (which, when you side-step the clutch at 6,000rpm, obviously puts a major strain on the whole drivetrain) and (b) flash tuning and forced induction. I think the comment was something like "people who do this stuff obviously know they are voiding their warranty and we're more concerned about the fraud they try on, by taking the stuff off and saying the damage happened to a stock car.
Seems fair enough to me
The anecdotal evidence here (and on the other forum) suggests MA has been pretty good on most warranty claims.
