So you gain surface are that is cooled but you lose surface
area that is making contact with the brake pad. Air is
cheap -- I could make some brake ducts out of material
from Home Depot if I was really concerned about keeping
rotors cool. Why compromise the performance of a high-
performance brake pad by swiss-cheesing a rotor?
