Engineering wise it makes a lot of sense for a street car to have disks

A friend of mine has a Porsche 924S. It has 4 wheel disc brakes AND a drum  
parking brake. The rear rotor had a small drum and "baby" shoes just for the  
emergency/parking brake. Hand it to German engineers to design the best and  
simple all at the same time.
