How would you recapture the air that cooled the rotor?

What would you do about brake dust? You'd be cleaning your air filter every 200mi.

Good point, good point...

perhaps we could route it through some fluid scavange system using blinker fluid. I think that there is some european brand that is very brakedustscopic and might work here. Think about the Sharper Image ionizer system, somehting like that.

Anyways, I think it's something to think about
