OK. Im getting brake drag after every race or track session. I have started off trying to cure the problem by cleaning the pistons, lowering the MC reservoir level, cleaning the pad hanger pins (no worn sections and I went ahead and sanded down any imperfection, removed the "noise springs"(the metal piece that sits between the caliper and top of pads to keep them held back), cleaned the rotor with acetone, and scuffed up the pads (EBC extremes). when I reinstall after the clean up the wheel spins much better(obviously I pumped the brakes up then spun the wheel), but as soon as I come in after a session after all of this sure enough its dragging horribly again. any help or ideas would be appreciated.
