Dear Paul, Many thanks for your letter. As far as I can see it will not do any harm if you spring load the pedal of your car upwards, I do not think the thrust race will mind. Next time you write about your car, you might remember to mention the chassis number as this makes things much easier. The accelerometer is doing useful work, and also faithfully records the temperature of the office. Yours sincerely, | ||
