Big BAD-ASS Brakes...Drilled

Too bad you closed the thread on drilled, slotted rotors. Some of the crap I heard wad retarted.

I worked as a engineer at Aerospace Components for over 10 years manufacturing brakes for racing and street driving. You can see our brakes in any Jegs, summit or NHRA magazine todate.

I run 13" front and rear drilled , slotted and zinc plated rotors. Been running this set up for 4 years on the track and the street.

Yes if you get some rotors from china they will crack and brake.

It's the material that their made of that should concern you and the process in which they are made. Not to mention if you beded your pads in correctly when you put them on as well as pedal ratio. Lots of factors when doing a brake upgrade.

Here's pics of mine after 4 years.
