If that happened to me, I'm sure I would have to change my underwear.

That car is local to me and Auto X's in the area. A few years ago something else broke on it and they hit a big pot for a tree and we ended up loosing the lot for Auto X's. The car is nice and the people seem nice and responsible, but man what bad luck!

That had me worried when I saw the pics, since those look like Diamond Racing Wheels (same as I have). But I went out and checked my wheels, and there's a big sort of 'embossed' ring around the lug holes that must reinforce mine. I can't remember whether I ordered DR's 'reinforced centers' on my wheels, but mine sure look stronger than those.

Those look to me like the kind of stampings you see on space saver spare tires, where the lugs actually deform the metal and you aren't supposed to go over 55...

Either way, glad everyone is ok!

There are wheels out there just for drag racing as they are not designed to take the side loading the road racing ones are made for. Could these be drag wheels? 98mm on 100 bolt centers?
