Getting roters cut... will it unwarp them?
If a car was traveling at say 135/140 mph and said car hit the brakes with ****ty rotors and brakes... and the rotors happen to warp (now squeek once per rotation). Will cutting the rotors fix this would you need new rotors completely.

Yes,,,,providing they are turnable....there are certain specs(thickness required) anything under specs(cannot turn)....,,,buy new ones....also the thinner the rotor,,less heat it can desipate....will likley warp again..at some point..especially if your hard on them...like track use..LOL...

I would look at upgrading the brakes with as much power as you are making. Like 8banger said if they are turnable it should fix it as long as they aren't to bad. I would still look at upgrading though.
