The problem was it needed to be attached to the steering control arms, and at speed they'd vibrate a bit and translate the shaking to the steering wheel. It was annoying. I ran one session at RFR with them, then pulled 'em off.
Perhaps if they were attached to the control arm instead of the steering rods, the vibration wouldn't be noticeable, but then there's a routing issue with getting the air to the center of the rotor when the wheel turns. Though, I didn't have any of those fancy RaceComp brackets to work with.

I know he didn't invent the idea, neither did you, but at least to me, he has mentioned it in relation to the RCEs a number of times, so that is what I called them.
If you would prefer them to be called the "Kind of like what Scott did, but he took off because they shook the steering wheel collectors", KOLWSDBHTOBTSTSW Collectors for short, then so be it...
And hopefully by attaching them to the RCE stubs, we will not have any of the issues you experienced.
