HOW DOES SLOTTING ONLY vs CROSS-DRILLING COMPARE IN PERFORMANCE?

Research has shown the overall stopping power provided by the DBA Slotted and DBA Gold rotors is remarkably similar. Because of their lighter weight and increased cooling, the DBA Gold rotors recover more quickly and have the edge in situations where there is hard braking in short bursts.

The major advantage of the DBA Slotted is an ability to absorb and dissipate heat more evenly and to sustain higher temperatures for longer. That makes them particularly good for continuous heaving braking situation, such as experienced when driving down a mountain or when towing.
