Re: Crossed Drilled Rotors

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxx>]

The main purpose of having cross-drilled rotors is to improve the
cooling to reduce brake fade. One common draw-back to cross-drilling
is the noise that you get. Some will find it objectionable. Since the
Delorean does not have a ventillated rotor it should improve cooling,
reduce warpage, improve straightline stopping distances and extend
brake pad life. Some shops will not cut a cross-drilled rotor, it is
hard on the cutting bits. On race cars these problems are not
important but on a street car they might be.
