They cut slots in the rotors, end of story
Personally, plain rotors are just fine for me.
ECS won't do it So I am doing custom coleman's
And no, they don't crack when hot(WTF?)

Some of the better ones are functional but you're basically trading pad life for pad life
IE, increased pad life under track stress for decreased pad life on the street.
The ricer rotors do crack, though.

I think you are confusing slotting with cross drilling, which has a lot of problems if run more than
a few track days - some of them that is. I had a set of big reds with the Porsche cross drilled rotors and had them cryo frozen, Those rotors did 30,000 miles of hard driving w/track days and didnt crack or have any problems. The set before (not frozen) lasted 1 track day and 1000 miles after. I have never had a problem with diagonally slotted rotors frrozen or not (the cryo treatment make a big diff. on rotors.

Although not a two piece, PureMS has 312mm slotted rotors
available with their Stg. 1 BBK. I would assume Mike could get them by themselves.<ul><li><a href="http://www.purems.com/products/product.php/II=810">http://www.purems.com/products/product.php/II=810</a></li></ul>
