Default Raptor Hub Nuts

While racing my Rap at Perris yesterday, I hit the big table on the back straight and head a "clunk" as I landed. Before I could figure out the noise, I hit the little double after it. Mid air, the Rap tilted 45 degrees to the right, then slammed hard to the left upon landing. As I came to an abrupt stop, my left rear Razr 2 passed me doing about 30 MPH. I though ok, I just toasted my stock axle. looked down, and my axle was fine! Evidently, I sheared the cotter pin that holds the hub castle nut, and the nut backed off, taking my whole wheel with it. I had impacted the nut on there, and used new cotter pins. Anyone else ever have this happen?? Talk about pucker factor! Jumping a double and having the quad tilt BIG in mid air is a huge attention getter! Haz
