contd :- -7- (b) Lemoine 1250 and 1300 lbs. springs. These springs looked stronger than their poundage indicated. They appear to effect a definite slight reduction in high speed wobble tendency, and impart to the steering a feeling of great stability when braking, or cornering fast (1500 lbs. side steering tube spring). The riding of the front of the car is somewhat harsh at low speeds. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/W.A.Robotham. | ||
