There's another variable I'm being at least somewhat cognizant of: I'm going faster than I ever have before in my car.
From my perspective, this may very well be a resultant 'feature' of being fast in SM - in addition to now tires & pads being wear items (again, I could go nearly a full season on XP10s, now I may be lucky to get 2-3 weekends), you also need to start looking at hubs & ball joints as well. Things I'd never before thought necessary to check after each session up until this year.
Additionally this influences what I'll bring to the track for any weekend but if that's a necessity, I'll shift my procedures to accommodate what the car needs and go from there.
One last item: admittedly we're not hearing from 100% of the front-runners in the class but we are, however, hearing from a few who not only run near the front but also support others that are experiencing a similar (albeit not 100% exact) situation.
To repeat: I installed a NIB (new in box) MSP enduro hub (with zero alterations) on the front axle, torqued to 140 ft/# (within FSM specs), sealed the cap with silicone, and the LF hub did not last a test day plus double-race weekend at NJMP-Thunderbolt.
Until I hear from MSP or ProParts about what failed on mine and/or a torque spec to tighten future installations to, I'll continue to run an OEM set that I repack myself and torque to the same value as before.
