Do these lugs break that often after 10 track days because there are plenty of ppl on here that are ok.

Maybe due to having spacers on some of the time??
When you get studs...you won't be spinning all 20 lug nuts on by hand. I still use air tools. Just don't get the lug nut tight and lay on the trigger for 30 seconds.
I used hand tools my whole life though. Some things on a bmw still dont make sense to me like bolting on a wheel and using clamps for exhaust
