ROTORS FOR BREAKFAST?!?

[Paul_Royal@idx.com]

      Has anyone else found this to be true (see post below)....not psyched
about replacing
      rotors every six months....I've got the CC's on now and drive about
      40,000+ miles per annum...am I in the shop in 4 months?
      Opinions please....I know you got 'em.:-)


      Thanks,
          Royal

      >>I want to warn y'all that I do NOT reccomend any carbon-fiber or

and they eat rotors for breakfast!
