Does Anyone Know The Outcome Of The Wide Body Super Snake That Had Only One Lug Nut On The Rear Wheel?

[Bob Z]

We were following a gray Wide Body Super Snake on the Poker run when we noticed the wheel wobbling. At a traffic light I went up to him, and observed he only had 1 lug nut left on the rear wheel! And it was loose!! He pulled over to fix it.

Never heard if he was able to get going again. Anyone know what happened?

He was taken care here at Shelby American by our production manager Craig Robinson. I'm not sure how the SS owner found himself in that situation though, a strange one for sure.

I was sitting at the light, right in front of him and I saw you get out and talk to him. That's freakin crazy.

Even worse was we were going more then 80 MPH on the expressway right before that exit!

Holy Cow! Man that could've ended up so much worse.

In case any of you ever get in a similar situation....

 

Pull one lug nut off of each (good) wheel and put them on the one missing lugs. All wheels will have 4 lug nuts on it at that point and you can get to a safe place with no problem.

ALSO, you should always check the Lugs often if you run Aluminim Wheels or Chromed Wheels. With Temp Changes and Vibrations, they WILL loosen up sometimes. Better to take a few minutes to check them to be safe.
