Backwards rotors?
I just replaced the stock brake rotors on my '02 Z06 with GM drilled and slotted ones that I obtained from a Supporting Vendor. I also installed new Hawk street pads at the same time. So far, everything is working great but I noticed the pitch of the slots and holes are backwards from other Vettes I've seen. I've been told the slots and holes need to "face forward" in order to work properly. Thing is each rotor was marked L or R and were installed correctly according to the label. Are they wrong?
Here's a pic of the front left wheel.

Well, I was able to reach through and feel the vanes. They do appear to be pointing towards the rear of the car on the top of the rotor.
So I guess I'm good to go, thanks!
