Default rotor?

Anyone running the 2 piece 13"wilwood or stop tech rotors with the stock calipers or wilwood sl6 caliper? How many track days are you getting out of them?

600 miles and some minor crazing. Haven't run it in near 2 years.

I know Z06 Whisperer is running the 13" StopTech rotor, from my experiance the StopTech rotors outlast Wilwood rotors hands down!!
Plus the Wilwood rotors thread the bolts right into the aluminum hat and need to be saftey wired, the stoptech rotors come with nuts that slip into the hat and are replaced when you replace the rotor, and you don't need to saftey wire. I also think the replacement rings from stoptech are cheaper. Just a little info on the two products you are looking at.

You could even do a swap at the track vs all the safety wire crap. If I ever get back to the track I will tell you all better compared to NAPA's. Now that NAPA are more more it makes it a little less painful to buy them. They slots do work good for more stopping power slightly. They are about 1 pound heavier than NAPA
