ALFA ROMEO STEERING.

Replying to a letter from us Alfa Romeo of Baker St.{Capt. P. R. Strong}, tell us that the front wheels of the 1750 cc supercharged chassis should toe out 5 mm.

They also tell us that with a 12/49 axle and 28" tyres the car should do 100 m.p.h. In this case that would mean 5000 r.p.m.
