Default Kragen Bendix Rotor v. Napa

I see the Kragen Bendix replacement front rotors are $22, Napa rotors are $48.
This is for my C5 z06 for track days.
Just wondering if the Bendix wasn't up to the task, and thats why its cheaper or spend the extra for Napa rotors.
Thanks for any help,

John L.

I'm guessing they're very similar - but don't know for a fact. I ran the Bendix rotors on my T1 car all season with good results. We replace them after every race weekend. $22 is a good price - we paid more than that for a whole pallet of the damn things!

NAPA has $25 rotor too. But the vains are straight, not curved.

NAPA part numbers

86700
86701
86702
86703

if the last four digits are the same for the Bendix, go for it

The Bendix part #'s are: 145167/145168

I'm wondering of this is an inferior rotor?

Thanks,
