RE: Anyone have slotted rotors? Need info...

Heck yeah!
Spell SCIROCCO on the rotor surface.
The Porsche guys with the word PORSCHE on the calipers would be envious.
What about painting the inset part bright red with high temp caliper paint,
make the SCIROCCO stand out.
Let's see Porsche match that!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL

That would be pretty cool though, just wonder what it would do to the brake
pads.

	I've got my ADD/cheapass brain working overtime again,
	and this time I want to take my four nice shiny new
	rotors to the basement lab at work (where a nice CNC
	mill awaits, with which I am fully familiar) and,
	well, slot my own rotors.

	I'm needing to know how wide and deep the slots are,
	and what the contour of the slot cross-section is (in
	other words, do I use a regular endmill or a
	ballnose?).

	Then I can come up with a purty pattern and mill me up
	some unique rotors.  And put them on Victor the Famous
	"Cheapass Special" Scirocco (like a Rolex on a hobo). 
	Hopefully I actually do it, and you can see 'em at
	Dauns' in June!

	Any pattern ideas appreciated.  A Star Of David might
	be nice.  Or teardrops, to match the wheels?  Or spell
	"Scirocco"?  (but then it would read
	"sciroccosciroccoscirocco" as you read it while the
	car was moving, and everybody would get dizzy.  And
	I'd have to spell it backwards on the right-hand
	rotors....forget that one)  

	Sorry, Cab Sav again.

	TIA,
