I've got the same thing...Went to the track last week, then backed the car out to load it up, and now it does this...WTF.
Have you pulled a valve cover? Just to check things over?

What would I be looking for when pulling the valve covers? Regarding my current problem. For the record, I still think its opti.

Pull your car into the garage, pop the hoop with it running. Turn garage lights off and look around the motor to see if your wires are arching.
