    Has anyone seen the ceramic brake disc? What is ordinarily the steel rotor is a ceramic brake disc with the hub built in. Caught a glimpse of it on tv last night.

    The carbon ceramic ones? When you saw it on tv, what car was it on? I ask because these are usually made for exotics only. I know Brembo makes some.

    ^This... hes right they are expensive as hell so only the exotics and high-end cars are equipped with them. Also under normal driving they are useless, they have a very high-heat optimal operation so that means unless your tracking the car you will prob never use them to their full potential( also the breaking will be lacking under normal driving due to this as well)
