a friend of mine is on some import boards and apparently that guy borrowed some wheels for the run and used the lug nuts that came with the wheels.

My mistake was I put them on with a lightly torqued drill and forgot to tighten by hand with the lug wrench.

Will you consider tightening your lug nuts in autocross?

I heard that he tried to use duct tape to attach the wheels.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

hah. seen that before. Almost happened to a friend who forgot to tighten the lug nuts at Laguna Seca.
Major vibration on the front straight and he just pulled over at the entrance to T2.
Luckily, the wheel didn't fall off.
Oh man, if that is true, that sucks! If my "friends" did that to me, they would be digging deeply into their pockets and I would have a lot of new stuff on my car, and I would still be pissed off!
Embarrassed to say, this almost happened to me last week. Put new wheels on and drove to put air in the tiires. There was a slight vibration but since I hadn't had them on before I thought a wheel was out of balance. Put air in and started to drive home and the vibration got worse. I pulled over and all the bolts for my driver rear wheel were loose. I could freely turn them with my fingers. My mistake was I put them on with a lightly torqued drill and forgot to tighten by hand with the lug wrench. They loosened right up. Talk about feeling like an idiot.
apparently there's a story behind that video. a dumb story.
a friend of mine is on some import boards and apparently that guy borrowed some wheels for the run and used the lug nuts that came with the wheels. they were, obviously, the wrong lug nuts.
it happens.
my friend went to the track for the 1st time in his M3 and didn't know that he should use longer wheel bolts with spacers. his rear wheel came off and he spun to a stop. no damage but now he knows
I heard that he tried to use duct tape to attach the wheels.
Sorry, I just thought it was funny how many theories there are for this story. Looks awful, I feel sorry for the guy. Those RX-7's are classics.
