| X788 To Bn.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} from BJ. Test of High and Low Compression Chassis BJI/S9.4.20 Can you please let me know whether these tests are being arranged to take place at Brooklands, and when they will be completed. At the time you are making them, CJ wishes a test also to be made with wind screens, in order to ascertain what are the highest speeds each chassis can do. If you can conveniently obtain one of the pre-war chassis or cars which can be tested at the same time on the track, with the same weight and wind resistance, this would be particularly interesting.
