I say stick with the normal amount unless someone with real experience 
suggests less.  What you don't want is more that will create a rapid 
overheating of the bearings from friction release in the churning of too 
much grease.We never saw problems in 200 mph cars we ran; but the weight 
loads were pretty light in the lakester and modified roadster.(Doug King's 
cars)
