| X/725 PN{Mr Northey}10/DN17.3.25. TO Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM PN{Mr Northey} An important necessity has arisen for obtaining as quickly as possible, some figure showing the rate of acceleration of our 40/50 HP Open Touring Car, both with 2-wheel brakes and with the new 4-wheel brakes. Also, we are asked for figures as to acceleration. I believe you have all these available, and would be glad if you would please let me have the information as early as possible. PN{Mr Northey} | ||
