Look here for the best safety upgrade!!
The owner of this shop comes alot to the local NASA events and brings a whole fleet of guys with 500+ whp corvettes that turn lap times equivalent with a spec miata. Here is their most product, the best safety upgrade you buy!

While the price is ridiculous, thats not the issue I have with it. Its that they actually stand up and say standard steel lugs are garbage and these are a must for any track car. Thoughts?

Racing is not cheap, yes you need the cage the hans and a lot more. It is the best out there and the material is not cheap and actually super expensive. Yes you get all 20 for that. Did I say stronger, longer, never rust and lighter. 45% lighter.
Most of our customers want the best when we build complete track- street cars. Most will not use 1.50 lug nuts on there 100,000 plus track cars. But you are welcome to do so. Budjet is a big factor, spend 1000.00 for factory repo wheels or 3000 to 9000 for true track wheels. Spend big money on rims and scratch them with short lugnuts that rust your thats your choice. This is a option.

How do you forget to tighten all of the lugs...
And they don't mention the huge galling issue Ti has when used as a fastener. Anti-seize is required and you must use an anti-seize that's compatible with Ti (copper based). Also, run in/out speed is important. Spinning these nuts on at high speed (impact gun) can also cause galling.
I don't see the average Corvette owner (or 350Z owner for that matter) taking the time to prevent galling with Ti fasteners.
But, there's a fish born for every hook.
