Shall we make this a popularity contest? If so the vast majority of people that have actually stressed their brakes will report that drilled 911 rotors(we are talking SC or Carrera here) are not a good thing to own.

As I said above

Keeping the rotors as cool as possible is numero uno wrt pad, rotor and fluid life expectancy.
having a light car is obviously part of keeping them cool.

There are so many variations in individual chassis setups, motors, tracks drivers etc. that there is a continuum of solutions from unacceptable to overkill, drilled 911 rotors are closer to the unaccepatbale end than the overkill end.

again we are not talking about 930 or 993 or 996 or 997 rotors here.
