A question for you track junkies and racers...what lug nuts do u use?

Since I've had the unpleasant experience of finding that my lugnuts loosen
after each session at track events, I was wondering what kind of lugnuts do
you racers use? I'm running some Gorilla Tuner lugs right now and I was
wondering if you use a certain kind that hold better so they don't loosen up
so easily during a lapping session. Now I do know that they WILL loosen up,
and that's why I check them after every session, but I came back one time to
find them a little over finger tight after a 20 min session! This was after
tightening them with a torque wrench to 90ft/lbs before each session.
Granted this was Mike K driving my car at Cal Speedway and he gets a little
closer to the FIA curbs than I do but that was ridiculous on how much they
loosened. I'd like to get a better set just for the track before the NASA
event in March. TIA
