My hazy recollection is that Robert Dunlop was nearly killed when a carbon wheel collapsed on an RS250 at the IoM and flung him into a cottage.

I believe the worst of his injuries were caused by the residents of the cottage. They were somewhat taken aback when he dropped in unannounced and flung him out again.

I recollect Freddy Spencer had a wheel brake at Kiolarmi In South Africa decades ago as well.

I said no danger to the warranty, but maybe I spoke too soon, GM appears to have a dealership problem. Who could predict that the good ol’boys who change Cavalier and pick’em up truck tires might have trouble dealing with carbon Corvette rims? “Ya mean you cain’t even drop ‘em on the shop floor? Them bitty thangs don’t weigh nuttin’!”
