| I think that they have been trying to do a little too much here, in their anxiety to keep the job going. I think we shall have to be satisfied with a few less miles on Peregrine(Experimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine) if the Bentley is to be run continuously. Something will have to be done about Peregrine(Experimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine) second speed, it comes out of gear on ordinary acceleration now, otherwise I am very pleased with the car. It seems certain that we shall have to improve Peregrine(Experimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine) oil cooling further to be certain. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} - | ||
