Need Performance Brake Rotors for TRACK Use, Affordable
What is the best bang for the buck for Evo-8 Brake Rotors for the track?
Now, by track I mean a circuit or lapping track like Watkins Glen, Sebring or LS. Track sessions last 20-30 minutes, at speed and hard braking before the corners.
I warped my stockers and want something heavy duty, can withstand high heat, at an affordable price.
(I'm already using track pads.)

RotorPros - MAPerformance has them for $250 (all 4).
Warping could be from braking technique. How are you braking on the track?
I run the RotorPro slotted with Hawk HT10 pads. No warping.

<< ".... How are you braking on the track? " >>
I'm braking with my right foot.
(Sorry, I couldn't resist that one)
I'm compression braking... hard and short at the last second before a corner.
I know some guys brake earlier and lighter and longer. I warped the "stock" rotors.
That's why I want some decent aftermarket ones. Rotorpros sounds like a great price.... is there something wrong with them ??????

I have a Forge brake duct kit. But, the hoses on the Forge are way smaller than the hose kit I had on my last car (WRX). The hose inlets are on either side of the intercooler and I'm thinking that not a lot of air is getting in there.
Anybody know where to buy hose "Scoops" for the brake duct cooling hoses to ram more air in?

mitsubishiparts.net has the fins, as well as, rexpeed.
here is a pic of the rotors:

Like I said, these have worked quite well for me. 3-4 HPDEs on them and dozen or so AXs.
