Ok, so ima ask the age-old question just to see what the general response is:
In a non-tracked situation, where heat dissipation is not a concern, do cross-drilled/slotted rotors perform any better than OEM? One might make the argument that the reater surface area of the OEM rotor might provide better stopping power.

Next question: Can any of you tell me if they personally have (or know someone that has) cracked a rotor that was slotted/drilled? Those that have the Z1-proffered drilled/slotted rotors attest to their composition quality?

I'm just trying to make an educated decision on the mod.

Thanks for your input.

The slotted ones look really cool :tup:

Happy why are you posting a relevent post here? LOL I would say in a non-track situation there is no reason to go with cross drilled and vented. I personally never had a cross drilled rotor crack but have seen pics of full race rotos cracking in dirt track racing under very extreme conditions. i.e. frequent full brake applies with short cooling times.

I have slotted rotors. From what I understand, cross-drilled rotors have a tendency to crack. That's not something I would want to risk.

I believe slotting and drilling are about keeping the rotors cool in extreme conditions, but I could be wrong.

I'm on the forum very rarely anymore. Can't browse from work. Have better things to do at home, usually.
