No matter how tight you tork down on the nut or how much of a press fit you have on the axle to bearing race the lateral force on the bearings will cause some play over time even on a track car. I'm just wondering if there is an exceptable amount that could be measured at the rotor.

You're right Steve. If you're running stock axles you will have "some" play. Reason for this is the stock axles were undersized from the factory. Aftermarket axles correct this poor design from the factory.
