All, just off the phone with my wheel and tire warranty company (Three in One) sold to me by my Ford dealer. Came out to a flat rear tire this AM and they said they would likely pay for the "repair" cost. When I advised them this was a high speed tire on a track rated car that should be replaced - not patched - they started backpedaling... I called my Ford dealers Service Department and they didn't seem to understand you don't patch high speed rated tires either. With my Porsche (same tires) they never even questioned it - always a new tire. They only have 2K miles on them and I'd be happy to pay a pro-rated wear amount, but not happy having to pay for a new tire when I have the coverage!!
So we left it that the shop is going to call the warranty company and discuss once I bring the car in. I may end up asking for a refund of the warranty cost from my dealer, more to come!!
Sigh, I guess it's the speedbumps in life that make you appreciate the good times, count to 10 backwards, deep breath....
