| -2- The effect of tyre pressures. The effect of unequal tyre pressures. The effect of low and high pressure tyres. The effect of out-of-balance on the wheels and how much can be allowed. We would much prefer to have these results than anything else because the roads in France give you a better opportunity of making these tests. I think it will be necessary to send the 20 HP. car to France as soon as it is ready. The men which came back with 9-G-111 are at present on holidays, and we are hoping to send the car out again in about 10 days, time. We shall have to fix up something as regards a Tyre Fitter. As regards the oil supply. Will you please arrange to get the oil through our Depot in Paris. The Wakefields address in Paris is :- Societe Anonyme de Huiles Castrol, 21, Rue de Mont Thabor, Paris. You could order the oil through R-R Paris, and have it sent to Chateauroux(French test region) when you required it. Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
