Sounds good in theory, though he didn't really explain why the new shape is better, just that it is. I'd be more apt to believe that the new compund dissipates heat better than your standard cast iron....and that the shape is a gimmick. I'd like to see some numbers or some lap times and the condition of the rotors afterwards. I'm always a skeptic though...

These are something that have been around for a bit now in the bike scene. They are called "wave" rotors (maybe not these exact ones but simmilar). They have shown better results on the bikes but are known to chew up pads a lot faster.
