the rotor's vanes for heat extraction determines rotation direction... not the slot themselves.

if you are unsure, contact your rotor supplier/bbk mfg

Thanks! Finally got the car where I want it the same weekend that I got the new house! One hell of a good weekend (though very busy)!

That's hilarious (pimp comment)! My wife would die laughing at the thought of my being a player!

Actually, I got married very young. We had our first child when we were 18(her) and 20(me). It definitely changes everything. I have nice things now, but that is after years of taking care of other people first. I'm very fortunate to be able to take care of my family well and still have some play money left over. Time is unbelievably scarce, though!

If you are starting a family soon, best of luck.

Never posted in here, but I've had the ST40's for a while and love 'em thus far. Tons of pads selection, etc.
