Cross Drilled, Slotted, both, neither?



Perhaps I should have prefaced my statement with "For the street,......"
I've had both kinds, and solid, vented discs are just as good.....for the
street, and probably for 95% of the track use our cars will see.   Drilled
will dissapate some gas (really, though, who even knows how much gas is
generated?) but drilling (or slotting) will reduced swept area somewhat.
Get a little, give a little...life is a compromise.
