Ill double check at lunch once it has cooled down all the way, but im typically driving many more sessions and the wheel/lug/stud doesnt get to cool down. DO NOT torque if everything is not cooled down.

I'll retorque them when I get to the track and usually that's it for the day. It'll only have been a couple of days and maybe a hundred miles since the brakes were bled and the "track set" of wheels and tires swapped on at home.

Before every session, after they've cooled off. A habit developed over many years of club racing.
