Remember that, when measuring the length of a cap head screw, you do not include the cap.
Please believe me when I say you are the only person we know of reporting this problem. I don't mean there isn't the odd breakage here and there -- everybody has that -- but you are the only person we know who breaks them in the quantity you do. Something on your car is wrong, something has been overlooked.
I make this sort of mistake constantly -- we all do from time to time -- so please take a second careful look.

I am using the correct 4-40 screws which are the correct lengh. First set of mounts i broke where the screws go in. The second ones broke when the nipple snapped so i cut them off and drilled them so i could hold the wing on with screws. This worked fine for the last 2 rounds and the car was great but i rolled it once in the final and the wing split at one side and was hanging off...
Can anybody tell me if they have wing mounts that have the holes in the center. All mine are off center and im convinced this is the problem.
