8 is making a loud dirty/gritty sound when I accelerate

Greetings all - my 2004 RX8 MT just started making a kind of gritty/dirty sound when I am accelerating hard. Just tooling around town and not riding on it hard does not cause this sound, but if I am really gassing it it seems to kick in past 5k...does anyone have any ideas what would be causing this?

Corner of a rotor blew off...might need a rebuild
