Should have mentioned, happened while my car was being torqued at a shop. One lug nut snapped randomly in front of me while they were torquing it. It then dawned on me (), "oh ya, I track this car like I senna, must be wear and tear....note to self, change all lug nuts before this happens to me on the track!". End rant.
I don't let any shop mount my wheels. They get loose rims and tires. I bring them home and do it myself.
