Well I had a feeling it was the rotors on my MR2. At least after the GT-S incident, my drivers side caliper locked up and I drove it almost a mile before I saw (or smelled) the cloud of smoke coming from the wheel well. I still had aways to go to get home and couldnt afford a tow, so I waited for the rotor to cool, and SLOWLY drove the rest of the way. So I knew at least one of the rotors was toast...
As far as the GT-S the rotors were worn past the point of being turned anymore, so I can only assume that they were a little too thin and warped badly under my hard braking (I always take the twisty roads....)
Other than those two cars I have never seen rotors get that bad. And I worked in a little hole in the wall brake service place years ago.
