Members Jay A. Posted February 25, 2008 Members Share Posted February 25, 2008 Calling all Neon drivers Hawk is taking their part number HB177 that fits the first generation Neon off their parts list. This has generated a huge outcry from the Neon racer community. We are listening and trying to come up with a solution. As we all know the Neon caliper has a poor design and creates a difficult problem in coming up with a pad that will hold up to the small piston and long pad length without bending and the friction material falling off the backing plate. I have proposed using a NRS backing plate with the new DTC-60 compound that would provide a superior pad to any that currently exist. However this pad may still have some of the old issues it is just less likely. In order for this to happen I would have to place a large enough order. I would like to know how may Neons are still out there in competition and how many sets of pads you anticipate using in 1 year. Please contact me with an email if you are interested.
