For those who have tracked your Pista, what lug torque are you using? I've been told everything from 85ft.lb./120Nm to 95ft.lb./128.8Nm? I appreciate your help!
Why should that be more than the 100 Nm recommended for a regular 488? (unless you're talking about the carbon wheels, for which I have no idea at all) Generally speaking, on track I don't think the torque has to be increased, it just needs to be regularly checked to make sure it does not drop.
No, not carbon rims. I read on a thread here about left rear tires on 488's coming off when tracked, and I wanted to confirm what is the best torque number? I can't image having a tire come off on track. Thanks!
I use to be a track rat with my Porsche's. I have seen wheels come off and lug nuts losen. Always check torque after wheel cools right before your next session. There is usually around 1-2hrs between sessions and wheel will cool down...heat expands, cool contracts, so re-torque 5-10 minutes before you got back out. Also never use any grease or anti-seize on nut threads. Just clean metal to metal threads.
