Am I worrying about a nil point?
My thoughts 🤔
During spirited driving brake rotors will get hot, what if it starts a down pour, could the vents allow cold water on to the hot brake rotors?

You’re fine. The water should evaporate quickly if it’s hitting super hot rotors. Also if this were a thing you’d see this on every performance forum.

You would have to quickly dunk them in ice water to warp them…like, ramp your car directly into an icy lake after your brakes are red hot. You can also warp many other parts this way too.🤣

You'd need a lot more than spirited driving to super heat the brakes. Takes quite a bit to get them up to a temperature where I'd be worried.
