cross drilled rotors



Larry, who cares if the slots disappear at whatever rate? Drilling and
slotting is largely a bunch of snake oil, anyway. Cut a slot down the center
of your pads and you'll get the effect permanently. To your point about the
other aspects of brake performance (like modulation and fade), you get a lot
more out of the experience when your pads are clamping on metal versus air.
