Default C5 Rotor Prices???

I'm doing a C5 brake kit for the front and rear of my other project (73 Buick Century).
Anyway, I have all the parts, except the rotors. I didn't order them w the other parts because I thaught (after reading on here) they were so cheap at AZ and Advanced, it wouldn't pay to ship them. I would swear I read on here talk of $20 and $30 C5 rotors. I want blanks-not slots and drilled.

Well they are more like 65 a peice. Did they just go way up, or what?

Anyway does anyone know a good source for inexpensive, QUALITY, blank rotors?

Any responses and PMs will be greatly appreciated.

I'm searching the sponsors sites w little luck...

I did find them for around $40 on NAPA's site. Anyone have experience w these?

I do intend to race this car (time attacks). So I need quality, but want to keep costs down on disposable parts.

Tire Rack are Brembo blanks, but they're not that cheap.

I do not know the "brand" that RotorsOnline sells, but they're a sponsor and they are zinc washed...I don't like rusty rotors.

That was my plan. I figured they were cheap and heavy...so it wouldn't pay to ship them.
But...Autozone and Advnaced (who are normally the cheapest) are in the $60-75 range. I haven't tried NAPA yet... but their online prices are much better (hope the store prices match up!).
