Are ceramic rotors generally available or is this thread about a specific application?

If it's backwards, you would find something to disagree with here:

Cryogenic hardening - Wikipedia
Cryogenic hardening is a cryogenic treatment process where the material is cooled to approximately −185 °C (−301 °F), usually using liquid nitrogen. It can have a profound effect on the mechanical properties of certain steels, provided their composition and prior heat treatment are such that they retain some austenite at room temperature.
Temper first and the machining should/will have less chatter.

I will have more data soon[-ish]. The car is at the shop and he will pull a rear drum and inspect it, The picture at Permalink #4 is from 2015.

The point with the gas cans is they can run full, empty or without, depending on circumstance. Usually, it's full in the right to balance the driver's weight.
