ahh kk gotcha, it was mostly on R comp tires that the N55 reported oil starvation issues. (once again, very few if any track the N20 so we dont have much info on it) But iv heard from multiple beemer techs that the bearings are a sort of Achiles heel on the N generation engines.

So i would look into upgrading to beefier bearings, you could also use motor oil that handles the thermal loads of the track better. I run liquimoly in all my cars. But funny enough my tech told me of another dude who had heating issues with the BMW OEM oil and even liquimoly. his car would drop into limp mode on track after 20-30m.

He swaped to redline oil and it never did it again. So maybe consider using Redline oil and upgrade the bearings?
