LCA torque

Dan the man said

Indy cars, they don't torque those wheels either, no time. I've never had any problems with lug nuts breaking or lug nuts coming off in all of the years that I have been driving.

I call bull ****. The guns used are set to a torque spec for said center lock setup, same for NASCAR and any other pro racing series that has pit stops. The guns used are not your run of the mill cheap *** HF air guns. The guns in F1 are made to the teams specs and can cost more than your dart we all have yet to see photos of… The wheel nut torque on the vintage F1 cars my brother runs is in the 300 to 400 Foot pounds depending on the car. Ever seen a torque multiplier?
