Lugs backed out on track. ARP extended studs FTW. Pretty scary to say the least. The aluminum lugs have a tendency to stretch over time after being torqued so much. I switch my wheels quite frequently so that was most likely the issue. I'd had them for like 7 years though. Time for Project KICS with the retainer to avoid scratching the wheel.
