Brake disc fracture
Discussion
Brake discs changed today. They're less than half worn, so a little bit annoying that I have to change them but I noticed that there are hundreds of tiny little heat fractures starting to appear on the surface from the extreme abuse 
These have done about 5000 miles btw.
It's been standing for a couple of months so I cleaned up the patches where the bigger cracks were for a better look.
NSF Front face- ouch.
NSF Rear face- holy crap its cracked right through!
Closer inspection reveals-
The god damn thing has fractured right round the hub of the disc- by the looks of it I wasn't far from it shattering or losing half of the brake disc LOL
I was happy enough with the braking performance and dont struggle with fade really so I wasn't planning on uprating yet....but now..... I may reconsider!
