STs run quite a bit cooler than PCCBs, thus extending pad life. In addition you can run more aggressive pads like the RSL 1. A set are significantly cheaper than the PCCBs at $13,000. Still crazy expensive, but becomes very competitive when you consider 250 track days for $25,000 with refurbishment.
Damn it boy. You killed me with the 600 per rotor statement. I'm fallen and cant get up.

Porsche Barber motor sports school gets 3000 track miles on set of PCCB rotors - that about 20 track days based on my usage or about 10 track weekends, or about $3000 a track weekend in brake costs - too rich for my blood.
