These cars were protected with New Mobiloil Special and used a completely new gasoline -soon to be announced to the public. Under direct supervision of the Contest Board, American Automobile Association, the 20 cars started the 1335-mile course from Los Angeles, April 5. They wound over famous Ridge Route on U. S. 99, on up Into Yosemite National Park, then back to the main highway and on' to San Francisco. The second day found the drivers pushing their mounts through Sacramento Valley and up the snow packed Sierra range, then over Don ner Summit at 7135-foot altitude, and across Nevada to Elko. Wednesday, the cars finished the last leg Into Sun Valley. The temperature during the 1335 mile trek ranged from desert heat to near freezing; the cars traveled from sea level to 7135 feet, with widely varying humidity conditions that tested the performance of the engines and the new gasoline. A. A. A. SANCTIONED -slock cars identical with those you buy were picked at random by 3-A-had not previously traversed the route. Cars carried usual passenger load of 4 per sons with luggage, or the equivalent. Deputized A. A. A. men rode In each car as observers to check all driving practices, see that maximum speed limits and all other traffic laws were strictly enforced. ENGINES CHECKED - automotive engineers checked, and tore down engines. They found completely clean engines; spark plugs, carburetor and automatic choke were free of any de posits. Technical papers which will be prepared on these findings will have special significance to all car owners, more particularly to those whose cars are powered with engines of modern design wherepre-lgnltion,staUing,and gum deposits are usually prevalent pi CLASS WINNERS: Cks A -$1500-$2050, Standard & Overdrive; Class B-$1500-$2050, Automatic Drive; Class C-$2051-$2400, Standard & Overdrive; Class D-$2051-$2400, Automatic Drive; Class E-$2401-$3000, Standard & Overdrive; Class F-$2401-$3000, Automatic Drive; Class G-$3001-$5000, Automatic Drive.

COMPLETELY NEW MOBILGAS SPECIAL USED ON RUN The Mobilgas Economy Run was the final and conclusive test In an ex haustive series of research and road tests of New Mobilgas Special. The more than 28,000 miles covered by the competing cars capped the most thorough checking of a gasoline under road and driving conditions, exactly duplicating what motorists encounter In a full year's driving. Hence, Mobilgas Economy Run re sults are both proof of the basic economy built Into today's cars and positive evidence of the mileage char acteristics of New Mobilgas Special.
