Of interest to many of you, may be the DDS Performance Friction Rotors.

They use finite element analysis to come up with a way to overcome thermal fatigue and WARPING. Brake hat and attachment system is taken into account as well.

That's it in a nutshell. You may want to contact Porterfeild for more info on that.

We use the R4 S on the race car, and love them. My next set of pads will most likely be Ferodo 2459 compound. I had them once before, and liked them very well for the first half of their life. They got hard after about 5 years, but still had 50% material left on the backing - this after many a canyon chase and LA traffic.<ul><li><a href="http://www.porterfield-brakes.com/catalog.htm">Order catalog here.</a></li></ul>
