These rotors are worth the effort and cost to place on your Race Car, DD or DE car. Why not try them and find out what you are missing.

Such as what? My understanding is that slotted/drilled are for looks and not performance. Is there something new or different in these that can be quantified as "better?"

You gain thermal stability or improved braking.

So, then you have some documented performance benefit? Either you it or you don't.

Grooves in rotor faces are partly a carryover from the days of asbestos pads. Asbestos and other organic pads were prone to “glazing” and the slots tended to help “scrape or de-glaze” them. Also, cross-drilling and/or slotting the rotor for racing purposes was beneficial by providing a way to expel the gasses created when the bonding agents employed to manufacture the pads began to break down at extreme temperatures. This condition is often referred to as “outgassing.” When it does occur, the driver still has a good firm brake pedal, but a significant reduction in friction. Normally this only happens at temperatures witnessed in racing. However, with today’s race pad technology, “outgassing” is no longer a concern with pads designed for racing.

So in the final analysis, drilling and slotting rotors has become popular in street applications for their pure aesthetic value. For most performance applications, slotted is the preferred choice. With certain pad material, slotting can help wipe away debris from between the pad and rotor as well as increasing the coefficient of friction between the rotor and the pad. A drilled rotor provides the same type of benefit, but is more susceptible to cracking under severe usage; however, for street and occasional light duty track use, they will work fine. For more severe applications, we recommend slotted rotors.

Nice edit. The original comment was very professional.

All I want to see is the quantifiable data to back up your claims. If they are for looks only that's fine, as I too think they add to the appearance of the car.

bbbradley - why are you being argumentative? A quick search on the benefits of slotted rotors will show that they last longer than OEM rotors with cast holes. Cross drilled are the worst by the way. OEM rotors tend to crack at the holes and any crack longer than 7 mm or holes which join two or more holes or any crack that goes to the rotor edge means you replace the rotor$!

The 996 is especially sensitive to rotors cracks if tracked. There is inadequate cooling to the front rotors, something PAG improved on the 997. I switched to slotted rotors on my 996 GT3 and again on my 997 .1 RS and got much better life. I hope this answers your rather persistent questions.
