Finned Brake Rotors?
Anyone hear about these? Wonder if they are available for C32? Group discount possible?

The Brake Man makes very good stuff, especially brake pads. I like to use their #3 compound pad on everything, street or track. you can get more info at http://www.thebrakeman.com/ I believe they can make you a kit if you take them a car, and they are so cal based. I'm sure someone would be willing to donate a car for a couple weeks.

See what the patent they claim, like many powersupply design, a lot of wings inside the rotor.(1) Disc 13" is smaller than 13.5" of C32.
(2) I wonder the cooling effect by their "patent", need more information to confirm that.
but the weight can be significantly added, not mention the cost.
If your brakes can survive from overheat, said,160 mph -> 60 mph, that's a good one, you've very limit time to tell if they're capable.
