Remove front dust brake shields?
Was suggested by someone that removing the "dust brake shields" would be better for brake cooling. After a bit more investigation it seems the shield might also protect components from heat. I am only concerned about getting additional cooling if removing the shield achieves this. Cannot imagine the wheels being any less dusty and dirty with the shield on or off after an HPDE weekend. I can certainly understand how the shield could be beneficial at deflecting some heat away from suspension components, etc.
