R1 Concepts 6 Pot BBK

Does anyone have experience with these BBK's or have heard anything good/bad.

Looking for some feed back before I get into these brakes.

The main reason why I am most likely going to get these brakes is because they are local and I will be able to get help from them ie. mounting, set ups, installation.

Well...just reading through some other car forums, mainly BMW, it seems there is a question about pricing versus say, STOPTECH and performance. The 6 pot calipers may actually have less area than stock? Not sure what the cost IS, but looks to be north of $700? They look nice but are pretty new to the market, so not a lot of 'street cred' just yet.
Let us know how they work. I assume you're going to be racing the car?

I have R1 Concept drill/slott rotors on my BMW and they warped within a few months. Crappy China made stuff.

If you just want them for the looks and good price....they will do, but if you them to perform...spend the extra money on something else.
