Check engine light at the track

I ran the global time attack this past weekend at Road Atlanta and on the second day I started throwing CEL's. I would be in the 5-6k rpm range in 2nd or 3rd when it would come on. It didnt affect performance and I kept driving thru my session anyways but when we read the code it came back as ignition coil. I cant remember the exact code but I was curious if anyone else has seen this? It hasnt came back with regular freeway driving and my only mods are crawford power blocks and a catless frontpipe and exhaust. Any input is appreciated.

EDIT: Code was 0351

Then don't.

They have to prove that your abuse is outside warranty coverage not the other way around.

Don't mention anything about tracking the car unless they specifically ask you.

Just tell them you were driving your car hard and then this issue arose. You are not sure why and ask them to fix it politely.

I would not even tell them you were driving the car hard. Just tell them you pulled the code using your phone. Should be fixed under warranty
