Hey, Steve-----
St. Pete-based 'Vette Brakes does all the pieces for the factory Corvette racing programs, and adamantly insist aball-milled "dimpled" surface is superior to either slotting or drilling. They claim gas-venting is superior to either, and the rotors are far stronger, with weight comparable to drilled/slotted.
FWIW, YMMV...remember you promised heavy me a ride in the Ferrari!
Cheers, Bill.

Bill,
Stop on by for a drive this week. We are having GREAT weather! If you can wait until after September the new rims/tires/brakes and tweak alignment should be done. Going to Maranello in September to check out a few things :)
i kinda question the 'Vette out gassing part as modern brake pads really do not gas much like older pads, but hey, whatever works :) The new Vettes are truly impressive and must give them credit for FINALLY making it a truly competitve and great car.
Me? i love the classics... yet having an Enzo here would not be out of the question :)
