From this it would seem that the uneven braking is caused by more water being present in one drum than the other, and the time necessary for the brakes to dry off governed by the amount and power of the braking received.

Mr. W.L.P. Miesagaes agreed the brakes were better, but expressed his dissatisfaction at the performance of the car in general. I assured him our Service would do their best to satisfy his demands.
