Yeah, Joel, Lonny does an excellent job.  He has lots of "standard" styles that he does for each particular rotor because of the holes that the manufacturer makes stock, and I think he's done some custom jobs.  These have been for individuals and some teams.  I think even on some flat track bikes.  You have the route through Mark.  That's probably the easiest.

Can the difference actually be felt or is it just knowing one is doing all they can to compete better?

Yeah, it's further down on the scale of things to do.  Suspension would be first.  But a lightened rotor looses a decent amount of weight for the cost.
