For the most part I agree with what you say. I will add one other little tidbit though. I was using the AP Sprint kit with DTC-60s on my ZD6. I would heat check the front rotors to the point they needed to be replaced in one season of driving. The rotor thickness was still near new. On my new ZD8 I decided to go with a 355 mm rotor to hopefully decrease long-term running costs through lower breaking system heat. My powertrain is stock on my new car just as it was on my old car.

(I had beers with your old autocross buddy Kyle a couple weeks ago. Seeing him at the NASA event this weekend too. [emoji846])
