The only worthwhile upgrades on the rotors would be larger diameter and/or lighter (aluminum hat rigidly mounted to iron disc would be useful for reducing unsprung weight), in my opinion.



crossdrilling and slotting are more for appearance than anything.

You can run stock parts, if you dont want to run fast lap times. Trust me stock pads on stock rotors will fade very fast on a track. [/quote]

they win enduros with the car. better pads would help their laptimes though

You're saying that some guy goes to the dealer and ask for stock pads for his race car?

When he could be running performance pads for about the same price?

I think I am stepping in the BS now.

With 7000+ posts I would think that you would be able to elaborate a little more.

Like more than one sentence fragment.
