Don't know if cryo treating brake rotors is really beneficial since when you run them on track they heat up pretty close to the temperature they are heat treated at to cryo treat them. Would not this undo the heat treatment process after the first time they are run hard?
Looked into this a little with casting experts at the casting company I worked for and it is a controversial subject whether it really works on cast iron rotors/parts or not......has to do with formation of martensite and other metallurgical properties. Any hard data and results of legitimate testing back to back to support favorable results?
