The circuit selected for the six days’ road and hill-climbing test of the 15 h.p. Napier was 21 *3 miles in extent, and included three of the most severe hills in Kent, viz. : CUDHAM HILL—The stapest hill on the route, rising in parts lin 5. Altogether there is a rise in this l’.ill of approximately 200 feet in 58<3 yards. It must not be confused with Ctidham Church Hill. TITSEY HILL—The lowest severe hill on the route. It is about a mile in length and rises approximately 450 feet in that distance. There are gradients in parts of 1 in 8. WESTERHAM HlLL—Rises approximately 300 feet in 1318 yards, with gradients of 1 in 8. In addition to ascending this hill on each circuit the car had to negotiate the descent. There were many sharp turns on the route, which showed to advantage the large lock on the 15 h.p. Napier, enabling it to negotiate the sharpest bend without difficulty. In spite of the severity of the test there were no involuntary stops—the 15 h.p. Napier running throughout with perfect regularity. N.Z. Farmers De-op. ta. F. Kibblewhite - Selling Agent.
