Thanks to everyone for taking the time to respond.Wammy,my engine serial no. is 402-077.Djseed,I do have the Dart block upgrade.
A couple of thoughts/observations.I have been "fooling around" with cars for some time,am not particularly knowledgeable about mechanical or electrical stuff but know enough to ask the right questions and if the answers make sense,have been racing in the Bertil Roos F2000 series for a couple of years,done a number of track weekends over the years with a variety of clubs and cars including Ferraris,Porsches,'Vettes etc,and am probably an "average"driver who is slowly getting better.I thoroughly enjoy the cars and most importantly,the people who also share this interest and passion.
This is my first experience with a major failure with a car,so it is a bit of new ground for me. In addition to trying to use this web site,I have talked with a variety of different people in the high performance/sports car business-engine builders,race team owners/drivers,car dealers,driving school personnel etc etc-to try to determine what my reasonable and fair options might be.Interestingly enough has been the fact that everyone I have talked to-and I have been absolutely frank about what I have been doing with the Coupe since I purchased it last August-has said there should be no question about Roush replacing the motor under the warranty,not withstanding the fact that the word "racing" is specifically mentioned in the warranty documents as an exception which would void the warranty.If I was drag racing,doing the One Lap of America as my son and I had planned to do with the Coupe but will not now,Club racing,SCCA,Vintage etc, the situation would be completely different and absolutely clear.I feel,right or wrong, that if a car built as the Coupe has been built has any type of warranty which would be void if the owner places that car on any type of race track for any purpose,the potential owner should be informed of this at the time the car is purchased.Insurance companies are very clear about this-some will cover our cars for track events,some will not.
Additionally,companies selling these type of cars should make it clear what the participants' liability is with warrantied aspects of their cars when they promote and sponsor a track experience for their customers.
Again,thanks for taking the time to respond.It has been appreciated and helpful.
