Because of that, you can get oil starvation under high G's, and more than likely that's what happened to my car.
I also noticed a lot more particles on the magnet on the plug when I changed my oil. So until it gets checked, I really don't know how severe the problem is.....but the signs all indicate that I have damaged the bearings, which has happened to other Z06s under similar conditions.
