If i am not mistaken...I think it was your car that Sharif showed me a picture of with the Monsters. Tell me more about "Knock Back Springs" ??

Real racers don't need knock back springs. Just double pump like I told you.

Nice one. That's one solution.

The knock back springs will keep the pad tight with the rotor even after taking sharp turns. I believe Loren @ Rotora mentioned they might be redesigning the rotors to alleviate this issue.
