Nope, I know exactly what slotting, drilling, dimples do for braking performance. I was referring to the beginning of your post. Legion5 is very knowledgeable so I didn't understand the point of mocking him.

If you're going to substantially upgrade the braking performance of the rear end, you need to be looking at a brake bias control installation as well. You don't want too much braking at the rear, unless your name is either Bo or Luke.

No one is cranky. I've just seen too many dumb posts but this kid trying to be funny that it gets annoying. That's all. Slotting, drilling, dimpling only reduce material off of the rotor to be lighter. Some say it's to clear gases but a lot of people will tell you that's garbage and untrue. Once you start reducing the amount of material on the rotor, you're reducing the effective area that the brake pad will be touching and thus ultimately reducing performance.

get off your ****ing high horse. I share helpful info when I can, and try to be humorous and light hearted when I don't have any super helpful items to bring to the conversation. sorry if it rubs you the wrong way, but you're going to have to get over it. I sincerely doubt you follow my every post, so maybe you've only seen my "funny" posts, but either way, you need to understand that not everyone is serious all the time, and especially not online.
just so we're clear, I have no issues with you personally, but don't try any act like I'm being the most obnoxious person you've ever ran into online.
