Z1 2-Piece Rotors and Carbotech 1521 Pads

Now only turn 3 will show the winner as one will be hotter and will have more fade which means you need to brake later ultimately. Tracks will also differ a winner depending on braking zones etc. like a bike with sprockets, one setup doesn't work everywhere.

lol, truth is we dont know. but I love the rotors
