RE: How to fix a warped rotor???
a warped rotor is usally caused from high heat, spend the money and upgrade if ur gonna be using at the track. fixing a warped rotor (on the track) its gonna yield bad results. i did the same thing on my car cuz i didnt want to spend the money and ended up messing more than the rotor up. ur bent rotor is an excuse to upgrade to better stuff since the old stuff is broken (at least thats what i tell my wife)

RE: How to fix a warped rotor???
I agree with fish. Heck, I've even had NEW rotors sent out and straighened becuase the factories idea of allowable t.i.r. is very different from mine.
I've raced on straightened, previousiouly warped rotors for years, and never once had a problem of any kind. fyi I use frame straight systems, not the cheapest but IMHO the best in the business. Now if the rotor is actually bent that's a different story. |

RE: How to fix a warped rotor???
I've spoken to several Machinists and speciality shops on this issue and most of them say that it would be a temporary fix and that it would probably bend again. AlsoI think everyone here has a different perception of a bent rotor. A couple thou is nothing and should be straightend fine. If its out a 1/4 inch find different rotors because you will be wasting your time fixing a floating disc.
