| contd :- -2- a parallel one. Dodd and Reynolds could not get any sign of a wobble, and the steering was generally much improved going to Hyeres for confirmation on a high speed road to prove straight running. We have done some of this while Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} has been away to the Italian border trying 13-EX, and learning something of the difficulties of the roads here, and about the Riviera. Do we think that the new 20 HP. axle (front) will be any better as regards susceptibility to low speed wobbles? I know it is better for high speed, and other good features. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
