They also mentioned that if you use it to test your quarter mile skills on a private road not against another driver or time, then it will not void your warranty either. Ford ALSO said if you're just using it to show off / show your friends then it will not void your warranty.

So they're pretty clear they don't want you to use it at a track unless you want to void warranty; but if you have friends and a private road and are just doing runs to mess with it, then it will not void the warranty.

i think the write up was by MotorTrend or Motor Authority, re posted by Jalopnik

In other words the engineers are giving you a way out while appeasing the lawyers who wanted the warranty void added. Just say you weren't racing.
