lug nuts for personal vehicles vs race cars

281 views

When putting tires on a personal vehicle it’s always recommended to tighten the lug nuts in a star or criss-cross pattern, yet when you see pit crews for nascar they just go around one by one very quickly in a circle, why can they get away with doing it that way even though they’re driving much faster so things like a loose lug nut or vibration should be a pretty big deal, but it’s recommended that I always do a star or crisscross pattern?

Cause they don’t care if the brakes get warped. They’re either replacing rotors or have a floating rotor that won’t be effected.
