i wanted the benefits the flywheel had for the autocross purposes.

Aren't you doing this very inefficiently though,think about it you could have just got a lighter flywheel and had more of an effect. Also by removing material from the rotors you actually make them weaker, maybe not significantly but still weaker.

But im still whating on pics of the rotors. It might be a good idea to talk to Dave lemon ( Mazdatrixs ) or Jim tanner at Racingbeat. They are a good source. Sense you are in Florida talk to Carlos Lopez at CLR.
Thanks Robert
