They will work fine, autozone blanks will work too.

I don't like the way my autozone rotors/pads feel in emergency situations... Lots of fading.

Thats more the pads then the rotors... lots of people run them on the track here and they rock. plus the smoke and the 2 year warrenty... you can't beat them.

For a pure autocross/track day car.. brembo blanks or autozone blanks? I know the autozones have the replacement program.. but my biggest fear is cracking. All of the lifetime warranties in the world don't matter if a disc cracks during a track session

Brembo blanks crack just as easy as Autozone in my experiences.

I've had brembo blanks for just regular street driving with some axxis ultimates. i think next time i need new rotors though i'll go with autozone rotors.

But the brembos have had no trouble, but then i haven't had any track sessions on them. daily driving theyre fine.

I've used (and continue to use) Autozone rotors with no problems. I've put them through hell and they've yet to give me any problems in terms of cracking or major warping.

They wouldnt be called Brembo 'blank' if they were drilled and slotted would they?

I've had Brembo blanks that lasted no longer before warping than my white-boxes. I only buy white boxes now.

BUT I recently had bad experience with Canadian Tire white-boxes. For my Toyota, they were only $19 each. Something is wrong with them. When stopping from high speeds, it feels like you are riding the rumble strip on the highway. I think the surface is not completely flat.
