Brake rotor choices... which one?

I prefer slotted over drilled as drilled does seem to be more prone to cracking. Slotted gives better initial bite.

On the rally car we went with brembo blanks - higher than OE but no holes or slots to get dirt/grime caught up and cause delayed brake response!

I think like others have mentioned, for a street car a nice blank rotor from a superior company and good HPS pads from Hawk, and you're set.
