Default Cheap carbon/carbon brakes, but...

they probably don't have the mass for repeated, heavy stops for road racing. Still, I'm surprised at the prices. They are really low.

Looks like rear drag brakes

for dragsters that don't run front brakes.

Prices are definitely on the lower side for Carbon Ceramic brake rotors. They are small only 11" which is much smaller in diameter and way thinner than we use in the Vettes especially in a BBK. Bet the cost would go up a bunch with larger size and thickness needed foe our cars.
