chevy seems to agree...

let the debate continue.....
Also, those are Carbon Ceramic rotors, a whole different science from the cast iron rotors found on 99.999999% of cars on the road.

GM also has a marketing department and there are many rich people out there who might just be pushed over the edge and buy a ZR1 because it has drilled rotors like a Ferrari/Porsche/Lamborghini.

EDIT: Also, the GMPP teaser video showed a brake change and the calipers seemed to be an upgrade over the standard SS Brambo's...Maybe it was a one-off piece from a ZO6, or maybe it will be a brake package offered through GMPP in the future.
