If you get a good quality set like brembo's, the vented rotors should cool enough. Most manufacturer's of drilled/slotted rotors have a disclaimer for using them on the track, being they have a chance of breaking. |
from what I understand, the only pads that have a problem with gases being created are ones with organic material in them.

I heard in racing applications, they use more slotted than cross drilled rotors. I think it cools better.

i believe, they use slotted rotors because they are much less prone to warping and cracking under high temps than cross drilled.

It brakes very well :D
|
i just installed slotted rotors with axis pads...my trip home(25 miles) was my break in...or so i thought. i got home and mine brakes were smoking like crazy.
its been about 5 days now and im about were you are at. un-even wearing, only at the very middle of the rotor though. i have noticed it is going away little by little the stopping power is incredible!!! |
Yeah. mine is at the outside of the rotor, but its working its way back in. How much were your axis pads? Are they spitting dust like crazy?
|
yeah..idont know how much they cost because my mechanic hooks me up huge... i told him i wanted just oem replacement pads and rotors because i am looking at a big brake upgrade but cant afford it right now....so, i told him to order just plain and simple stuff and he got my stop tech slotted rotors with the axis pads. i think i paid a total of $50 dollars for everything.
and yes, the dust is crazy, but its a performance pad so what can ya do. |
