There's the greatest test and tho greatest proof of the excellence of Rickenbacker 4-whecl brakes. 'Cannon Ball Baker" in his sensational record smashing drives did it. "J adjusted my brakes at tho end of 4661.5 miles," says the famous driver, "and not because they needed it even then, but I was going after that other record El Paso to Los Angeles (908.5 rniles which he made in 21 hours, 23 minutes) and I didn't want to take any chancea. "A quarter turn of the adjusting nut was all they needed." Just think! that 4664.5 milcr was equal to at least 20,000 miles of average driving. At least 20,000! For in his coast to coast ruh (3,106.5 miles in 71 houri, 33 minutes actual driv ing time) "Cannon Ball" had to make thousands of quick decelerations and hundreds of emergency stops. Remember, be had low pressure, balloon tires. Only 25 pounds nf air in them to protect himself from the road shocks. Couldn't make right anr;le turns and hair pin bends at. full speed. He says those wonderful brakes really made these records possible. Because he could, in a few feet, slow down from 70 miles per hour to 25 and take each turn in safety. Then with his 65 horse power motor, get away i again as quickly But that's putting grief on brakes. The route down tho Pacific Const Vancouver, P. C, to Tia Juana, Mexico l,55o miles, crossed three mountain ranr.e-. -roads up and down with acute switch backs and steep grades. Just a series of alternate accelerations and brakes. And yet these brakes were not adjusted till the end of 4661.5 miles of s.uch Icrril-c driving. If you have not reused the smoothness and effi ciency of these 4-wheel brakes you really cannot know what perfect brakhv; qualities arc. Drive this Rickenbacker Sis yourself it will be a revelation to you. i3KJ Addi-- nil finiimnii jh iin - In A. i ih:m) i;so. DimmIuiIoi .11 Alil.r -I. Wiillii Vint!.!
