Default would you risk it

So last week I found myself some Mazda Millenia wheels at a junkyard and had them powdercoated black, I think they look good on my cwITR. but when discount tire fitted the tires (azenis) I had them put the wheels on the car too, bi mistake. they use those power drills and one of the studs was stripped or somthing. I went to bleed the brakes today for a track day tomorrow and to get the wheel off I applied torque to it, (i stood on the wrench ). The stud sheered off with the nut attached. so here is the question, would you guys track your car with 4 studs? The conditions of the track would be near autocross style as it is a kart track in shawano wisconson. speeds of up to 70 miles an hour, but I am registered for 2 hours of time tomorrow.
So would you risk it?
