Double Rear Brakes combined with old type Torque Tubes. X.713

R.{Sir Henry Royce} 16-11-14.

You may remember that you instructed us to carry out an experiment as stated above, at the beginning of September of last year.
The parts were prepared and completed the following month but were not fitted to a car until 22/10/14.
Mr Haldenby would be glad if you would kindly instruct us whether you wish any specific experiment or test to be carried out with these or whether it will be sufficient if they are merely watched whilst in use on an experimental car which is being used for road tests.
