Best of both worlds.

edit * just found this online.
On a different car I ran dimpled/slotted. They lasted 30 track days.

On our race car we run Powerslot Cryos.

For the Z I will run Powerslot Cryos since I can get them at wholesale.

I'd recommend the StopTech Stage II Kit, with Slotted Rotors. Love Mine!

bringing this back

if the Z is daily driven, with no tracking or autox would drilled or slotted be fine?

what about drilled AND slotted?

are drilled rotors bad even for everyday driving? if so i would probably just stick with slotted then

Yes, you will be fine daily driving and even spirited fast driving on street with drilled and/or slotted, and will see increased stopping performance.

If you take them to the track, however, they will crack sooner than later.

Its that simple.

drilled and slotted = street
slotted = track/street
drilled = street
blank = track/street
