What exactly causes this to happen again?

I have only heard of this referenced once

picture a rock on a string, and your spinning it in circles above your head, eventualy youll spin it fast enough that the string breaks

same thing applies to anything that spins (wheels, tires, crankshafts, clutchs) eventualy the material will stretch to its breaking point

i remeber watching a show about a land speed record car, the wheels were 3 feet in diamater and formed from solid aluminium … they said that when the cars “at speed” the wheels grow an extra 3" or so in diameter
