Lets talk about lightweight rotors

So, I ordered a set of DBA 5000 T3 Clubspec or whatever the hell it's called 2 piece rotors through Joe@ZSpeed. Now I know that removing unsprung weight is great

Default Lets talk about lightweight rotors

So, I ordered a set of DBA 5000 T3 Clubspec or whatever the hell it's called 2 piece rotors through Joe@ZSpeed.

Now I know that removing unsprung weight is great to make the car accelerate faster.
But when it's the front discs on a RWD car, will it be affected equally?


Also, doing a bit more reading up (I must admit, after the fact) I see that some people are say that 2 piece isn't good for the track because there's less material to accept heat and that some track cars have heavier rotors
But DBA's are never really brought up directly, is their vane pattern better that they don't have the "traditional" light weight rotor "problem"?


Any other input or suggestions or comments would be great
