TO. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}

Mr. Lang.
Chassis B-122-GA.

This car has been fitted up with the new cylinder head and pistons. It has been delayed for the rear axle to be finished. We are now carrying out an oil consumption at an average speed of 50 MPH.

The results will not be finished until to-morrow.
