cross drilled rotors Scott Williams is WRONG!

[jason_f_snow@nac.net (Jason F. Snow)]

Hehehe that got your attention ;-)

I don't know about performance, I think everyone is missing the point.
Rotors have holes drilled into them in order to increase air flow,
thereby reducing heat in hard driving conditions (such as racing on a
track). That's the theory behind that. I would say (not from experience
since my car isn't done) that they would work...It just makes sense.
Will this increase performance? I don't know, but I do know they would
have to be cooler (temp) no? Of course it could take a couple of seconds
for the pad to grab the cooler rotors (so I've heard). That's why you
would want to get the braided lines to get a better bite in the
caliper...As far as Scott being wrong, I think I have a better chance on
finishing my car today than proving him wrong...

Lol..

I'm the one that prefers bigger rotors to sloted ones ;)
