My Elise Parts outer joint bolt snapped at Snetterton a month ago. Mind you it was probably something to do with modifying the entire nearside bodywork of an RS Focus with my back wheel as I went up the inside approaching and into a corner!!

Been fiine in my experience, only time I've had a bolt snap is when the wheel has hit something. But we do check and retorque before every race

Sorry to see this Mark, 
Hopefully on the mend soon!
I think best to check bolts for any signs of bending
