Even with moderate track usage. I just can't imagine this thing pulling so hard that the screws in the hood rip out (that seems like the greatest point of weakness- the screws that bolt the latches to the hood.

Thoughts?
I see nobody responded to you on this Jeremy. I don't know about the ICarbon CF hood but I know my Vorsteiner hood "lifts" once I reach a certain speed (track AND highway). It was so bad that I would have other drivers flag me down and tell me that my hood was open. I would say go ahead and get them installed professionaly and call it a day
