Yeah! For just whats listed there it doesnt seem worth the $2,200 for the ultralights.

I've been told that MFR has lighter rotors available but that they cost a shitload. I don't know if it's true of if it is what they are made of.... but the rotors are definately heavier than necessary... I believe the renesis has lighter rotors but I'm not sure how much lighter, or if it's a different material.

Apex13B, I'd be scared or screwing up the balance of the rotor.

You're a racing mechanic right? Could you lighten some for us
