The friction portion defines the friction surface of the brake disc assembly during a braking operation. The friction portion includes a carbon composite material. The core portion includes a core material that is not a carbon composite material, and the core portion is configured as a heat sink for the brake disc assembly for heat generated during the braking operation.
