Na.{Mr Nadin} Referring to your remarks on the report card of the car which you had on Sunday last. I do not agree that this car should be fitted with double rear brake. We often require a single rear brake car for comparison, also there are experiments to be carried out on this type of axle. This is the only car we have with single rear brakes of this type. x2 | ||
