[hr]On close inspection of the hub it appears that there was an initial crack that developed without full failure then yesterday (Fri) while at Sears Point in a very high G turn it completely failed. I figure that the initial crack developed due to one of the offs i've had at the track. [hr]

He said he figures the initial crack in the hub occurred when he previously went off the track in a spinout or something.
On top of that, this guy says he beats the hell out of this car, as it's basically full out race track car for him. Again, I'm not seeing "crappy honda suspension" being the culprit. Replacing such things are more likely just annual manintenance on a car driven so much on the track as a track car.

At what point does this lead you to believe that it was a "crappy honda suspension"???
