Anyone know anything about this rotor?

I'm just shopping around for new brake pads and stumbled across this rotor... anyone know what this is?

Seems to be a steel disc replacement - quick search didn't find any reviews but found it interesting enough to post.

We are a Girodisc dealer and I have had great feed back from my customers using these discs.

My stock rotors are about done on my personal Z/28 and I will be making the switch to iron discs soon.
I even hear of a Z06 that swapped and with a very experienced driver compared the set ups back to back and actually went faster with the iron discs.

Best Regards,

Try them out and let us know!

I had tried the Racing Brake replacements and made a post about it. They unfortunately didn't work out. They cracked way before the minimum thickness and had to take them off.

WHen I swapped mine out Giro wasn't making them for the Z28.

I ran a full Girodisc system on my Evo 10 race car. They performed really well on the track and never had any issues with them. From what I remember though is Girodisc makes a replacement front, but they don't have a replacement rear yet. They need someone to send a rear rotor in so that they can make a setup. The rear they have on file from a C7Z which I think is different, or it might be a Zr1 Rear. I know all three of the cars share a front rotor but one of them is different for the rear and that is the setup they have on file.

Either way they are a great company.
