Anybody who would purchase brake rotors that cost 65% of the new car price is kind of a moron.

You don't need carbon ceramic brakes on a 200hp car, and those who are adding TONS more power have already spent more than a "reasonable" amount on the car, and won't bat an eye at having something custom made for them.

Plus, any track monster builds are probably cutting the weight down to 2300lbs anyways, FURTHER negating the nasty brakes. A 900hp, 3000+lb, 200+mph super car NEEDS some brakes that will not incinerate when hitting them at 180mph.

Our little sports car that struggles to clear 125mph will suffice with steel rotors (albeit nice aftermarket ones).
