Thumbs up Crossed drilled and slotted rotors

I was curious to know why, AMG installed crossed drilled and slotted rotors on the rear of my C63, and not the front like my E63?
So I contacted a good friend of mine, that is also a AMG Master Tech this is his explanation.

He said "Due to the tail happy nature of the C63 the Electronic Stability Program (ESP) is in overload with trying to keep the wheels from spinning by applying brakes to the rears as needed thus generating a lot of heat that needs to be cooled down." Now both you and I, have been educated.

Very informative info, I was wondering this as well.
The slots on the rotors will add alot more bite.
