Where should I buy slotted rotors??
Where is th ebest place to pick up sloted rotors for the best price. Looking to race at the track in a few months and need an upgrade.
BTW I'm looking at getting the Carbon Metallic pads, I think.
Thanks

Check out www.vettebrakes.com, I just ordered a set of their slotted sport rotors ... and if you mention your a forum member you get another 10% off. VB&P makes good stuff!

Nowhere. I won't go into it here, just check out the archives. It's a waste of money and you will not gain anything from it, except to wear out your pads quicker.
Having said that, I do run them on my two piece 13 X 1.375" front rotors because I want maximum bite when I apply the brakes at the end of a 3,000ft straightaway. I run Wilwood GNIII 6 pot calipers and the 13" J55/GS fronts in the rear.
PS. PFC are the best on the planet as far as I'm concerned. I have run their street Z pads on my wife's Blazer, my Tahoe, (C4 originally) for many years, and only their race pads on the Corvette and wouldn't consider anything else at this point.
What year is your car? If you have an early C4, it depends how much you want to spend and if you want to upgrade to 13" brakes. On my '86 I am putting new slotted rotors up front along with the Hawk pads, and the semi-metallic pads on the rear ... all from vettebrakes.
Give them a call they are very knowledgeable and will help you out.
