RB wants us to, you know, spend some more money on replacement rings, metal pistons, silicone seals, who knows what else.

I am seriously considering to return my new RB rotors before they are destroyed after one track day.
What do you guys think?

Yes, of course, today.

Once I have final word back from Warren about this all I'll make a full post with pictures and the email chain and let you guys come to your own conclusions about it all. As of now i'm willing to go on faith that it's a bad batch or rotors and they're maybe just embarrassed of that. But as I told Warren, I'm not willing to spend another few hundred dollars to test that out. If he wants to replace my rings and send me back out, great, I'm happy to do that. However, if not i'll be taking my money else ware and getting a set of proven rotors.

Was a great day for the most part. The only issue was the Aston Martin the first day. Other than that there were some fast guys there.
