No, this wasn't my car. It is a professionally maintained GT3 RS
Wheels were always torqued exactly to Porsche's instructions

This was a dedicated track car with a roll cage. Both driver and passenger (both experienced club racers) wore three layer fire suits and HANS devices and were strapped into race seats with 6 pt harnesses.
Imagine this happens during a "spirited" drive...

God am I happy that I have "old school" 5 lug wheels
