MPH. at max. engine speed. | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | J.3. | 35 | 4464 | 4.1 | 14.7 | 115 | 41.0 | 78 | | P.2.Cont. | 48 | 7668 | 3.41 | 16.5 | 110 | 36.3 | 86 | | P.2.J.3. | 40 | 8100 | 3.00 | 14.7 | 115 | 47.5 | 90 | This is confirmed by comparative tests which shew J.3. to have considerably better accelerating than the latest continental Phantom. The new 4 1/4 litre Terraplane is better than J.3., but we should beat it comfortably with our P.2.J.3. with a 3/1 axle ratio. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rn. {Mr Robinson} | ||
