The rotors came from a company called Racing Brake, www.racingbrake.com , they are the two piece C6 Z06 and the rears use a cast iron hat for the parking brake.

I read on a couple of the corvette forums that the stock Z06 front rotors were cracking and giving trouble when used for multiple track days. Most said it is because the vains are backward on one side. Chevrolet uses the same rotor on both sides drilled with a left and right pattern for the holes but the internal vains run in the same direction on both so one is actually running backwards. Since I intend to do a good bit of track time I upgraded the front rotors to these and figured I would get the rears for both asthetics and a better rotor. Whew!!!!! them things weren't cheap though.
