I have actually run across a lot of thoughts on running your car hard and IMS falilure rates(by no means a scientific study).
Now I am just repeating what I have read and have no proof of the claims. but is goes something like this:..

People who baby their porsche and never get close to the redline don't get enough oil flowing. Now people like, well , me (and others) who "drive it like you stole it" and love to here the engine rev out through the gears apparently get more oil to ims and subsequently have fewer engine failures. Now this is assuming you have the proper levels of fluids and regular mainenaince done.
