I think there are a lot of unreasonable expectations that a BMW can be continuously abused on the track then everything should be honky dory after that. Yes, the M cars perform great on the track; it's not free from wear and tear though.

Grew up around all types of cars due to my father. The best cars we beat and at the end of the day put away ride hard and the car kept giving. That's what it's to do. Yes parts break, but if you make a solid product you should not worry. Much like a diesel truck, bought cause you can beat it pull anything and get 300,000 miles off it. It's built to do that !
