It's a myth that slotted and drilled rotors can't be turned. I Just had it done on my 13" cobra mustang (slotted and drilled) rotors. The local auto parts stores (autozone, pep boys, etc) won't turn them but a good machine shop can. The one I use (Basko) does it on a flywheel machine that give it a circular cut, which is best. I asked, "are these better or worse than a plain solid rotor?" Ray said "better, dissipates heat better". I'll take his word for it.
