his tires. "How did / do it?-the

And the build of the car, and l an
not the man to take any credit from
good, aggressive driving. You know

When seen at his train after Z

Sure, it's true. I've always want
cd to build tire that's better thar
any tire I've ever used, and now In
going to do it. It's an ambition tina
started with the first race lost.
I've used as many tires as mos
men. I've toured every state in tn,
Union under all conditions. In fact
beiieve I've done more touring thar
any man in the country, and l know
what tire must be to satisfy the mai
