Blown06-New Build: Cage, 4-Link, Cog Drive, + Too Much More

I was checking out this brake kit tonight and decided to weigh just the rotors.
The stock rotor
weighs in at a heafty 26.6 lbs
The new 2-piece Strange rotor
weighs in a 6.6 lbs.
Thats 40 lbs just in the rotors!
For those of you who got the regular 1-piece steel Strange rotors, they weigh 7.2 lbs.
So the upgrade, gets you about a pound and a half.
Here they are together

Those rotors would work well for the drag strip but I wouldn't do any other kind of racing with them. That's a lot of unsprung weight there, I forgot what it equates too but it's something for every pound of unsprung weight it's equivalent to 10 lbs in weight loss on the vehicle.
