RE - SPRINGING.

Attached is a report of some investigations we have carried out on Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}'s car 58-GX during the past week. The results were rather encouraging but more experience is required on these low rating springs before any recommendations for standardisation is made. We are awaiting Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}'s confirmation or disagreement with our impressions.

We are carrying out investigations on the 20/25 HP. chassis on similar lines.
