Default Brake rotor question?
what is the difference between cross drilled and slotted rotors? which would be best for drag racing and street use?

Cross drilled rotors are lighter, weaker and they look pretty. Slotted rotors are also slightly lighter than blanks, are as durable as blanks and may enhance braking performance. Drilled rotors will crack if driven hard.

I was noticing in JEGs that Wilwood makes a lightweight kit designed for drag racing.

I doubt you'd want to run it on the street ...
