I just wonder if it's best for me to just keep replacing my rotors with stock ones being I probably wouldn't be as hard on them as you guys? I'm trying to be a budget minded racer. I do want some Carbotech pads. Not as agressive as you have though. I know a lot og guys talk so highly of Carbotech and how there more rotor friendly than other pads. But heat is another thing I assume?
You need slicks in order to get more from your braking system anyway, so pointless to spend $1000 on brakes and then just lock them up.

Just cryo treat a set of rotors and that's probably the best you can do. Cryotreating is $100 for each pair and a set of air ducts are around $500.
