S/W Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}..from C. C11/C26.6.33 Re 2.5 Litre Bentley. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}7/WJ23.6.33 I note you will be able to have the Green car and the Open car ready on Friday next. We suggest meeting you at Bigualls Corner at 12 o'clock. Please let me know if this will suit you. We thought we might do a few runs on the Bypass road and then drive to Brooklands for lunch - really only because we would like to feel that we had been able to compare the Green car on the Circuit with the last time we tried it there. It will also give us an opportunity of trying the Open car against it. Will you please let me know if this programme will suit you. I propose bringing along with me Cx.{Major Len W.
