| contd :- -2- There was cause for complaint, but 90% of it was due to the rear. I cannot suggest any better stiffness for the front springs which I think will be found extremely good. We may however prefer all the damping in the springs and slight, or no shock dampers for ordinary demonstration, and slow speed cars. I will write more anout 46-PK later. We saw a few ways of improving it, but it was noticed that :- (a) The engine was excellent for smoothness and silence. (b) Brakes were extremely good indeed. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
