Listers,

Does anyone have experience with deep cryogenic tempering of cast iron brake 
rotors?

Specific application is a moderately heavy production car, which happens to 
use a unique & very expensive rotor.  Being prepared for competitive vintage 
racing.  Have not decided on type of brake pads yet.

Wondering if cryo treatment could help extend the life of the rotors.  The 
advertisers make great claims.  Does anyone have unbiased experience?

(Maybe a hard core tech question will get us off the cheaters thing)

Regards,
Mark Palmer
