The author of the article which appeared under this heading in the May issue— W. Boddy—thanks the correspondent who writes in this number to the effect that racing on motor-cycles can be a very good introduction to racing with cars. However, Mr. Boddy had in mind those persons especially anxious to drive racingcars, and particularly those who have the means of acquiring very fast cars for the purpose, but only keenness to aid in their pilotage. Recent accidents in racing and in practice have emphasised the danger of allowing even moderately experienced drivers to handle very fast cars under unfamiliar conditions without any sort of tuition.—Ed.
