I'm not sure how we arrived at these numbers, but we use 65 ft lbs
with 7/16" studs and 75 ft lbs with 1/2" studs.
With the 65, we'll get a little movement after one session and then
it's rock solid. With the 75 (and 1/2" studs), the torque before the
first session doesn't change after any track time.
