How many drive pegs are populated on your hub?

[FrankRizzo]

All 6? Only 3?

3 in the front 6 in the rear

Like Mr. Anderson said. 3 in front, 6 rear.

My new car has 3 per, all the way around. Thus the reason I ask.

Just think of the weight and rotational mass you're saving over the other schmucks...

I'm pretty sure that was the thinking BEHIND it. I'm just concerned as to whether it's enough. If you "standard FM guys" are using 6, I may need 6 with my 225HP FM-like.

Frank I would run 6 is the rear and not worry about the extra weight. It may save you a DNF

Yeah, I'm seriously thinking about adding the other 6. That's why I asked what you guys were doing. It just seemed a little "light" for my tastes. (Unlike myself). :-D

Cars came new with 6 in the rear 3 in the front.

The more pins you run, the longer your wheel centers will last. 6 in the rear and 6 in the front is your best bet.

If you are only running 3 pins, and one happens to break, and you don't catch it in time, you will be running on only 2 secure pins, which will increase the likely hood of failure exponentially.

That being said, I would say that i see about a 50/50% of 3+3 and 3+6 out there.
