Another question about drilled rotors...
Most people say that drilled rotors are only for show, crack prematurely, etc... But, nearly EVERY high performance brake package comes with drilled rotors. Drilled rotors are stock on porsches and ferraris. If drilled rotors are for posers, why are they included in all the brembo packages and on high end performance cars?

Drilled rotors can be good high performance rotors. It all depends on how they are manufactured. However, rotors that are just drilled with no additional work done to strengthen them are just rotors that are drilled.
Most cars that are built for racing don't have drilled rotors, they have slotted rotors.
