If everyone says drilled and/or slotted rotors are useless, why do all of the expensive sports cars have them? I dont think they would put terrible rotors on $100,000+ cars.

TaylorMade,
I believe what everyone is saying is, slotted/drilled rotors are overkill for daily driving. Unless you have the extra bank, its not worth the cost for regular driving? They ARE usefull, becuase they help to eliminate brake fade, due to hot brakes.
Basically drilled/slotted rotors are good for the 100+mph stops that high performance cars do. Or at track events where you are constantly using your brakes at higher then normal speeds.
On my 1987 Porsche 944 Turbo, I run drilled rotors upfront, and it seems to help a lot. Very little brake fade, and believe me, I've done a few 150+mph braking......
