re WRAITH FRONT TYRE WEAR.

Further to BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /SB. {Mr Bull/Mr Bannister} 10/HR.11.11.39. it occurs to us that it would be useful to reduce the toe-in on Wraith cars which are running on Company's business, to see if any improvement in front tyre wear is effected.

We do not believe we require any toe-in and and we suggest the front wheels be run parallel.
