Out of a total of 61 World Records, 61 w®r® established on Dunlop Tyres. Out of a total of 395 World & International Class Records, 341 were made on Dunlop Tyres, m Of great importance in the manufacture of tyres is the data provided by Motor Racing. The terrific strains and stresses imposed on tyres revolving at perhaps 300 miles pei hour provide their lessons for tyre makers. The construction of racing tyres involves extensive scientific research and experiment and furnishes knowledge of great value in building tyres .... knowledge that Dunlop applies to the construction of tyres for general motoring. It is interesting to note that the centrifugal force, exerted on a tyre revolving at 300 miles per hour, is so great that the tyre becomes one inch larger than when stationary, and consumes one million seven hundred and ninety-two thousand foot pounds of energy every minute . . . sufficient power to lift a heavy railway train one foot off the ground ! The preference given Dunlop “ when nothing can be left to chance” can be followed with advantage when motoring conditions are less strenuous ... the organised research, experience and manufacturing resources which produce the tyres capable of standing up to the terrific strain of racing is behind every Dunlop you buy. <Th» particulars given above iSn. regard to records are ®3 at July Ist, 1931.); i ::::::: WSWfc 1 '••.y.v.y.l
