I disagree with the statement that heat warping is "impossible". It is highly improbable yes but can happen. As I said above it takes some super extreme conditions to do it though. Normal performance driving just does not create those conditions and if you are street driving your passenger car to the point you manage to heat damage (probably a better word than "warp") your rotors you are a menace to society and shouldn't be driving anyway.
