R5/M2.7.30 contd. 727 There are very few complaints when cars are so turned out unless the tyres are run unnecessarily hard, which can spoil any effort of ours. Finally, I do not agree to drilling shock damper valves because it is no use for the quick movements of the axle where it might be beneficial, and renders the dampers nearly useless for the slow body movements which we wish to steady for safety, and to avoid seasickness.
