If you search there are a couple of DIY videos posted showing tools needed as well.

Use google search but put in Camaro 5 in there and it will search the site better than the sites search button.

The drag strip is like sniffing glue, it's cheap, it's a decent buzz, it doesn't last long and they are all the same.
Road racing is like China White Heroin, the buzz is stronger, the high lasts for hours, it's extremely addictive and they are all different.

Make sure you order new caliper mounting bolts for when you change the rotors...they're torque to yield. Lot of guys don't replace them, but they're cheap, and brakes are nicer when they're connected to the car still.
