And at Talladega on that weekend, Bob Jenkins was livid about people throwing beer cans on the track while they were doing a tribute pace lap in memory of Senna. That's Talladega: the most literal or all NASCAR crowds.

@@grrob51 Each side of the car has opposite threads, I think the right side has reverse threads. Normally in racing you have a breaker tool, like a chisel that you can fit over the nut and hit with a hammer until it splits.

At 3:20ish.....are Nascar lugs left hand thread? Because if those are standard threads those guys are morons, they were tightening the lugs, not loosening them

[@rodneysmith7272]

I was thinking they were going the wrong way when I was actually watching the race.

[@D2RCR]

The right side wheel lug nuts actually do have left hand threads. They do that so the wheel motion helps keep them on tight (unless you just fail to get the lug nut tight enough initially).
