      Warning Stock Hub Failure

      I just wanted to warn any one that is running stock hubs on their cars. I had a stock hub crack in only 2 sessions with slicks wile testing at Pocono in prep for the XV Event. They did have 10 or so track days on them with street tires.
      I was planning to change the spindles and hub any ways but this was to close to crashing the car for me.
      I put a set of Speed Tech Performance hubs on for the XV event. They are a nice piece. http://www.speedtech-performance.com...prod/prd52.htm
      I do not want to raise any unneeded red flags. I was pushing the car quite hard, I also melted the 2 front valve stems just about off and went through a set of Hawk HPS pads in 80 min of track time.
      So if you plan to track your cars just think about the hubs and spindles.
