Thats the same brake package I got from Jason, and it's awesome. Fade free on the streets, never had the car on a track, but they're more than enough for the street.

And I suppose we are supposed to imagine that there is an FD between them rotors and you are at the wheel working through the corners like Shuie. Lucky bastard! And to think I got a charcoal grill for Christmas. What to hell is going on here?

Stock sizes, just better heat dissipating capability.

Why is there one section on the rear rotors which has only two rows of holes? Other sections has three holes.
Is the drilling done by Brembo?

Brembo doesnt do the drilling. They just sell the blank rotors.

Could you elaborate on who does the drilling and why there is one section with only 2 rows? Must have been tired after the end of the day Is there a reason to the madness?

I guess the slotting done before the drilling, and the guy who do the slotting is not dividing the round/circle in even number...hahahahha....someone did their math wrong.....
Any effect? I don't think so, but who knows.

Are these rotors race track worthy? Abuses from 140 to 45mph every 5-10 seconds?

Probably not. Many racers have had problems with cross drilled rotors cracking, with cracks starting at the holes and radiating out from there.

Slotted rotors are the way to go for longevity on the track.
