Wheel Bearings

Doing moderate track work (1/month on average), how long would you guys think front wheel bearings should last? Would it be normal to fail after only 20 track days? I don't hear of too many people complaining about them failing.

Also, anyone know if wheel bearing replacement is covered under Porsche CPO warranty?

The car is an '01 Stage 2, slightly lowered with x73, with 35K total miles.

Thanks
