rick lake. dont know why he would call the smiths at ffr, the car in question is a superformance brock coupe, not a ffr coupe. and calling spf would have no impact on the roller, which is what they sold, without engine . calling his spf dealer might have some impact relative to the engine grenading and their interpretation of the warranty eligibility.

however, methinks first thing to do is read the fine print on the warranty piece of paper that must have come with the purchase of the engine from Roush and see how that reads.

car has 9500 miles, probably some of those could be considered spirited driving i am sure. add to that 5 previous track days , which were probably not *****footing around the course in that car with that engine.

yep, i would read my warranty papers , and then re read them for exclusions and other fine print legalese and then call my roush dealer from whom i bought the engine and get their opinion of warranty eligibility/worthiness and / or next steps for repair of their engine. there has to be a lot of that engine that is reusable, and since they arent garden variety crate engines and not cheap to start with, alot of good stuff is most likely reusable.

then, like rick lake and racer x said..it is time to edit your first post and instead of road racing incurred, refer to your breakown on a sunday afternoon cruise at 35 mph and 2000 rpms on a tree lined street enroute to church when the engine just kinda let loose out of the blue for no known reason.
