I always think about this when I'm going to go drive hard through back roads. I have a Daikei but it's still in the back of mind. Good thing there was no one around when that happened man.

yup exactly ^ what are other options as far as good hubs go? daieki boss is about 89, momo 75, anyone out there know cheap priced hubs THAT WORK good, like the megan EZ streets of hubs lol. Not trying to thread jack, i just wanna know what to consider :)

This reminds me of that video of the SM driver when his wheel popped off and he was panicking to get it back on....

Ahh I can only imagine the buttpuckering that happened when this hub snapped

Oh yeah it was pretty fucking scary. I ended up in the middle of the street with my steering wheel on my lap..




Track Use Only is pretty much the biggest crock of **** there is. If someone was on a race track when one of these broke, people could potentially die. Anything "Track Use" only should be built like a brick **** house.

Glad your safe man.
I definitely agree with that. They just say that to save their ass. It's bs

Well it's to have minimum liability for exactly these reasons.

You can't attack them for selling a sub-par product when you were using it and it broke while on the streets... and if you broke it on the track.. well.. ****...

Kind of impossible to attack anyone for a product when you were fucking racing. hahahaha
