I went to the mall yesterday and I noticed a weird squeaky sound coming from my front right wheel. This morning I took the wheels off to check it out and found the lugs were loose. My guess is the extreme heating and subsequent cooling (expantion and contraction) of the rotors and rims at the the track worked the lugs loose. I triple checked everything before hitting the track, so I know it was tight in the morning. So, my tip is TIGHTEN YOUR WHEELS BETWEEN HEATS. It would have been a disaster if my wheel flew off!

 

i'm hearing a nice squeeking noise from the fronts now, too....

 

It's common practice before and AFTER any race event to go over your car with a fine tooth comb.

Wes had his uppipe come loose and drop all of his lower bolts into his exhaust heatshield.

I had my swaybar come loose at one time as well...

 

PM'd you

 

Yeah that wasnt fun

And my EGT backed out at the last track day

 

Have anyone ever been driving down the street and seen some person in a beat as car with shiny chrome rims. Of course u have but its even better when at 30mph the wheel flies of and goes across three lanes of traffic. Ha and i have seen it happen twice. Silly people
