The Vauxhall Villiers

Sir,

Further to your enquiry, as they say, at Curborough, after my first and only run, the trouble was the steel liner coming away from the brake drum, nearside rear. Having a solid axle I could have run without it but hadn’t time to remove hub and liner.

The car went fairly well to the hairpin but then oiled a plug or two at the start of the straight (too hard a plug) so I missed that dart to the Finish. Otherwise, a good Vintage day.
