London Trials. GYL-31.

I am obliged for your WP.2/MOE.11.33. I am sorry th we have no lap speeds to give you of the 25 H.P. trials cars.

I have noted your remarks with regard to the retard drive "groan" and we will take the earliest opportunity of freeing this car so that it can be dealt with by .. in the way which He. has recommended.
