| To EH from DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} x790 DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}3/CB20-11-19. In confirmation of our conversation yesterday I send you a copy of a note from BJ with reference to experiments to determine the relative max. speed and hill-climbing speeds of cars with high and low compression. I have informed BJ that we are proceeding with these experiments but it will be a little while before any results are available.
