yessir. at the track there are brz guys on their third and fourth engine - oiling issues. mustangs break all the time. bmw's having valvetrain issues. godzillas overheating their transmissions after the 5th lap. turbo miatas can't do 20 minutes. and i've seen more issue with mezger engines than m96; that coolant pipe issue they have and a few other failures.
