Both times have been at the track pushing hard, but was wondering if anyone else had experienced it or had any recommended fixes. I'm not using an AVO gasket anymore, swapped to a garret gasket after the first failure and still blew a decent hole in that.

Is it melting or what ?

You might have very high EGTs that are causing it to disintegrate, but that is just a guess
