Drilled rotors are a (inferior) hold over from an earlier time period. Slots however have no significant drawbacks and offer huge advantages. I will never install drilled rotors on a vehicle that I own, it's old tech.
I've decide, initially I will go with two piece slotted front rotors (stock size), hawk pads, slotted rear rotors, braided lines, and good fluid, about half the price of a bbk and should perform nicely for my uses. And I'll just paint the stock calipers, yellow of course. I'm going to do the paint immediately after delivery. Because race car.
Should I later determined that that's not sufficient then I'll probably look back into a bbk or/also hub swap.
