Mr. Hall is sending to Paris for another set of brake shoes, with standard MR linings for the practice car. He would rather have the set I brought over used on the race car.

This course is easy compared to the Ards circuit & the brakes have a much longer time to cool off.

Other alterations on the practice car were: seat altered in position & made more comfortable, clutch & accelerator pedals; floorboard:- removed rubber from well in order to slide heel across.
