I did 6 or 7 track days last year. 150k miles on my car. I broke the car.... several times, Haha. But not the motor. I attribute most of my track breakage to two things: not prepping the car properly for how fast I was really going (I'm "pretty fast" for my group), and, frankly, learning curve. (The two worst problems I had were due to driver error.)

Personally, I think your tech is overstating his concern. But im quick to admit that while I'm a damn- fine mechanic, I'm not a Porsche expert.
