Default Bogart wheel cracked again!

I went out to unload my Drag Pak today and the left front tire was flat. After airing it up I rolled it out before it went flat again, pulled the wheel and tire and discovered two 8-10 inch long cracks on the inside of the wheel. I always check them while I'm checking tire pressure but this was inside the wheel and couldn't be seen on the car. This is the second time my Bogart wheels have cracked, last time I lost the tire coming of the track. No more Bogart wheels for me but it is a good reminder to keep a close eye on your equipment. This would have caused a serious accident if it came apart going down the track.
