Sport Package Rotor Thickness

At the track you are more concerned about rotor cracks then rotor thickness. They start out as small hairlines in the center of the rotor surface and gradually gets longer

At the track you are more concerned about rotor cracks then rotor thickness. They start out as small hairlines in the center of the rotor surface and gradually gets longer and wider.

I have a garage full of rotors that have plenty of thickness but are just too severely cracked for me to trust them on the track.
