Default New addition to our brake line up

This new rotor was designed to work on all DRM braking systems including all of our two peice upgrades.


As we all know cars are getting faster and faster at the track. Which requires a huge amount of braking. In testing and customer feedback we found that the market needed something thicker, and more robust. This product will make the event more enjoyable, more cost efficient, and have less maintenance. So how much weight will this add? 3 to 4 pounds depending on the application. With that said, if you have a number on the side of your car, DRM suggests the lighter option. If you are out having a good time with your friends at the track, or street use. This new option was made for you.

There is no additional cost between the two rotor options. But as always slots, heat treating, cross-drilling do cost extra. The average rotor that leaves our shop now is 150-210 each.

DRM still suggests brake cooling, race pads, racing fluid, SS pistons and SS brake lines for people enjoying their Corvette at the track.





Here is a sample picture of the rotor hats.


If you guys have any questions please let me know!!!

Those look great Randy! I'm looking for a 2 piece set up with hats that have the "stock" C4 offset but rotors that are 1.25" thick.

Are they full floating ?

PM me if you want.

Matt,
I shouldn't have any problems putting this together for you! What year car and did you upgrade to the "late" setup. I will have to use our mock up spindle and hub to double check. But I'm 99.9 percent sure that this blueprint is the right setup.

Non-floating
