I'm reminded that when I first flew my KR-1 - way back when - I was more than a little startled (Yikes!) by the loud buzzing noise when my tailwheel hit the grooved surface of our runway. Introducing a layer of thin rubber between the tail wheel spring and the attachment block on the fuselage didn't cure the noise; but it did dampen it quite a bit.
