DBA Rotors
Has anyone tried DBA 4000 rotors and if so how do they work on the C5? The Kangaroo Paw ventilation design looks like it should dissipate heat a lot better than the stock rotors.

Disc Brakes Australia. I don't think they will last 5 times longer than the NAPA specials since thay cost about 5 times the price. How can you beat a $26 disposable. I just paid $98 for a set of 4 delivered to my door from Rockauto.com for the Raybestos version. I get one track day on fronts and 2 on rears using Wilwood H pads and don't care!
I don't think heat dissipation is a real issue for street use. If the car never sees the track, I'd go with the best looking rotors I could find.

Call the dude at raceconcept.net - you can get his phone number off the website. Got drilled and slotted, zinc coated rotors and semimetallic pads from him just recently and they are great.
