Default Introducing Essex/AP Racing Front and Rear two-piece discs for C7 Z51

Hello Gents,
I've mentioned this product before, and we're now just about ready for launch. These are heavy duty AP Racing J Hook 2-piece floating discs, designed to work with the OEM calipers on the C7 Stingray Z51. These are essentially the same as the discs we use in our Competition Big Brake Kits. They're also just like the discs we've been using in professional racing on the C5.R, C6.R, and C7.R before they switched to carbon/carbon. These are essentially a "must have" for anyone who is running their car hard on the track. They'll save a ton of money in disc and pad replacements over the life of the car, keep everything running cooler, dramatically lower consumable wear rates, decrease the likelihood of boiling brake fluid, and shave some unsprung weight (on the rear).

We're hoping to start shipping these by the end of this month.

            Check out these links for a complete comparison to the OEM C7 Stingray discs:

            FYI...our two-piece Z51 replacement AP Racing J Hook discs are now shipping! Front and rear. These mate up to the OEM calipers without any other modifications.
