For the sake of all this getting out of hand, I will agree to disagree and drop all of this at this point. It is obvious that we both are not understanding each others tone the way we are both intending to portray ourselves..
Yes, I am passionate and am a bit sensitive when having our product compared to the likes of a product that I know FOR a FACT is NOT of equal or the same quality. I MEAN I KNOW this to be FACT, not just a random claim. It is ridiculous just how much I have learned about cast iron properties, cast metal characteristics, different blends, hardness ratings of combined material, etc.. Not to mention my very own aerospace engineering background. Remember, I have seen and used GiroDisc rotors, first hand as well as MANY other aftermarket rotor companies. So I AM speaking from experience and I AM POSITIVE of my claims here of being better designed, better made, and with better materials. I wouldn't argue like this or have taken offense otherwise. I know for a fact that there is no US based company or otherwise that use such a costly blend of metal for our outer rotors, as well as the temperature at which we pour our molds, heat treat them after cooling, etc. Or use a 7 series aircraft grade billet aluminum for the rotor hats. GiroDisc as well as most others use run of the mill cast grey iron outer rotors as well as standard T6 aluminum for their hats... there may be nothing wrong with that but it is an inferior material and process, I can assure you.
Now, I will leave it at that and I hope you understand where I am coming from.
Sorry for my part in it, but I for one have more pressing things to do then have a pointless argument on a message board/ forum.... I hope you do too.
Sorry for any misunderstanding on my part that may have happened.
