1760 Re Steering Wobbles. W/N. 16.9.15. Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}/Mcr4/L16915. With reference to your memo H3/EM15915, kindly note that the proposed experiments with 7" Palmer Tyres have not been carried out as we had no 7" tyres here and we did not obtain sanction to purchase a set specially for this experiment. The whole question of steering wobbles has however been summed up by Mr Day in his report Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}2/G6715, a copy of which we attach herewith. Mcr. | ||
