The transmission had never lasted a long race, but after you did it it lasted for three races, then it was only a tooth off a gear box wheel and the transmission aft of the gear box is still all tight. You were extremely kind in doing the job before for nothing, for which I was most grateful but this time I should like to place an order in the ordinary way, if you would accept it, | ||
