Head's up everybody! I think this SliverSnake guy might be a fraud! While all of you are spending your time trying to smear me and criticize my sincere inquiry, I spent a little time checking Mercedes Benz web site. Please take a moment to check this out: Mercedes S-series

In it, you will see none other than a drilled hole rotor photo on Mercedes S-series cars. The SilverSnake is correct that Brembo makes them, but he is wrong on the drilling holes. Maybe we need some proof that he really works for Brembo. By the way, isn't Brembo in Italy? If you work for Brembo, then why locate in MI? Very strange.

Otherwise, this isn't such a big deal. You guys don't like my idea of adding holes. Even if humidity isn't the main reason, there still must be some purpose. And nobody can explain why. And all this talk about thermal mass. What the heck is that? Heat weight? Who are you trying to kid? Heat doesn't have any weight. If you put a candle on a scale, it will weigh the same before and after you light it. Gimme a break!

OK. Time to cool down. Really, I like you guys, and I love to read this site. We should all get along better.
