I think thats mostly for looks, the percentage of high-end sports cars that actually see serious track duty is as small as any other type of car, probably less than 1% of drivers actually go to the track.

HaHa! My stoptech trophys are hard anodized and they stay nice looking. Before that, I just powdercoated my calipers satin black because thats what they were gonna be anyway!
This is how hot one piece rotors and stock akebono's can get. XP12 pads were used. You can see the powdercoat melted around the hub and discolored on the spokes of the wheel. What you can't see is the runs in the powdercoat on the spokes also.
