                           The centrally located building has expedited operation since nearly all supplier      -
                   are within approximately one mile of the shop. (A parts supplier is next door.)

                           The red car has begun teardown and rebuild for the Riverside tests in December
                  and electronic measurements are being reworked and calibrated for installation. The
                  entire system installation is being redesigned to expedite vehicle installation or removal
                  with centrally located electronics and recording equipment in the trunk and connectors
                  for hook up of all transducers.

                           The prop shaft torque meter was successfully tested in the red car at the airport
                  test site. The unit is now ready for balance and high speed track testing.


                           The following electronic laboratory equipment was purchased when it was learned
                  that CHO could not loan equipment for the extended time in a remote location. Special
                  items for short term loan can still be obtained but these relatively low cost items are
                  required almost daily. This equipment was not priced in our IPA but can be covered
                  within our present budget underruns. In addition, the air compressor and computer fail
                  safe are listed, all of which were verbally approved prior to purchase.

                          The following is a breakdown of major expenditures during Octobei' plus those
                  material dollars committed for equipment., Actual billing for October will be
                  $5,978.59 for 16 days of operation. Man-hours were purchased from CHO for
                  operation of the race scoring computer plus repair and checkout. 40 of the man­
                  hours in the purchased column are due to a delay in transfer of one person to
                  Department 4190.
