Default Z51 replacement rotors??

Are there any alternatives to the OE crossed drilled replacement rotors? I'm guessing not based on all the threads about replacing them with non-Z51 components.

Reason for asking...., I'm looking for a 13.5" x 1.25" rotor to use in a non-corvette custom application for road racing that is not cross drilled.

I ordered a set of Z51 Brembo replacements from Tirerack that were listed as "plain", but they are indeed cross-drilled like the OE.

Any help would be appreciated....

Thanks,
Mike Schneider

I have Baer Cross Drilled and slotted two piece rotors but Baer offer non-slotted for racing applications. Also Stop-tech offers slotted only, Brembo offers plain and carbon fiber only in the two piece rotors.

Thanks for info, I should have included that I'm looking for a single piece rotor like the originals, just not drilled.

Is that Baer rotor a single piece non-drilled rotor?
