A Rave for Willard
Since we dont have a Rant/Rave Section.
Here's my rave for Will. I had mentioned I was gonna need new pads and and "maybe" rotors when I got home. He mentioned saving some $$$ with Autozone rotors. After much research and swallowing my pride. I saved $70 buy getting the Autozone rotors. They where $20.99 a piece. With my savings I spent $50 of it on ITRCA Expo schwag. WOO HOO!
It'll be an even bigger rave once my new Cobalt GTS pads and StopTech SS lines arrive.
My OG rotors did really well holding out as long as they did. They saw 4 track events. At least 30 AutoX's and 25,500 street miles before they heat cracked.

Willard = Da Man. He's my go-to guy for Volvo chitl, and has saved me probably a grand or more since I went Swedish, between his madd junkyard skillz and other assistance.
I've had beer at VIR, Summit Point, CMP, Roebling, Road Atlanta, BeaveRun, Gingerman, MAM, Lowe's Motor Speedway...

Will is great people, sent a set of rear calipers to use as cores/test fitment. Absolutely awesome.

Re: A Rave for Willard
I've been using some Napa rotors, not sure which brand, but I get them from there. So far, so good.
