With reference to Cxl/ES.9.7.35, although the above chassis was fitted with the two modifications you mention, neither of them will overcome the clutch jagger which the customer appears to experience on chassis GPG-32. We discussed the matter with Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} and if 'N' Dept. are not able to cure this trouble, it is suggested that the car should be sent up to our Experimental Dept. for them to deal with.
