Drilled are mostly for looks. Including Porsche!
A lot of the cheaper drilled rotors are just that, drilled. Not cast.

Your brakes smoking had nothing to do with your rotors.
Most likely it was the gas in the pads and I'm willing to bet must people here haven't changed their brake fluid in years.

I am hard on my brakes doing 115 MPH every lap.
Only time my brakes smoke is when I don't bed them in properly.
