[QUOTE="Todd TCE, post: 11698968, member: 39508"] Check with the Stop-Tech folks. They put out some promo a few years back about getting into that (level) market. Not sure it came to be but doesn't hurt to ask. Most of the mainstream folks are unlikely to do it. At least anytime soon. It's tough enough to get folks to spend $2k these days let alone 2X that one one rotor...! lol *Interesting read. Not truly what you, I, and others where thinking of compared to Porsche, Ferrari etc. An interesting spin on the idea however. Don't see the weight savings being quite the cat's ass tho. **Stainless inners?? Not sure I'm on board wit this. Stainless is not an ideal heat sink material. Sure; they last forever and have lower wear and heat. Great. Where does that heat go? To the pad and caliper. You can't change the physics of it; stopping is a thermal thing- same reason the Ti rotor plan is only good for light weight and low demand apps. *** [I]"The change from cast iron to stainless steel eliminates unsightly rusted rotors and the reduction in braking efficiency that comes from rusted and pitted braking surfaces. Green benefits...."[/I] Seriously?? These are the market reasons for such a product. Are these folks really in touch with their core buyers? Let's see.....Race weekend: Fuel-check, Spare wheel nuts- check, Radios- check, No rust, environmentally friendly rotors....yup got that. [/QUOTE]
