Fatigue Failure JDL FP/OP Combo. Anyone else?

For the record, I have an email out to JDL as of this morning and they haven't had a chance to respond. Not in any way is this post a reflection against them.

With that being said - this past weekend at Mid-Ohio after I loaded my car on the trailer, I noticed an exhaust-leak sound coming from mid-body of the car.

Of course, after I got home, car cooled down upon start-up the exhaust definitely was leaking. Took a look and this is what I found:

At first I thought it was a curb hit or something, but based on the cracking and the extent of the cracking this isn't a 1 time thing, so it seems. The exhaust has had some time on the car. Since 2017 it's seen about 30k miles of various DDing, AutoX and Track Events

Anyone else have any issues with exhaust failing in similar fashion/form?
