How much better are cross drilled brake rotors than plain factory brake rotors, at stopping, cooling and preventing warpage, and whatever else they are an impovement over stock ones at

 Just something I was curious about.

  1. While surface treatments and ventilation are a factor, the metallurgy of the steel used for higher performance rotors makes a larger difference.

    It's not a simple A vs. B comparison, because you are starting with a different rotor before any of those manufacturing processes are performed.

  2. For track day work water cooling is probably more effective.Grooving the discs helps remove the gasses created when the pads make contact.Cross drilling has been said to create more problems than they are meant to solve.
