High Speed And High Costs Furious Speeds Are Obtainadle Only At Fancy Prices THESE TWO THINGS are as inseparable as the "Guid Dust Twins" but of less economic value If anything, High Cost is a little more forward than his brother High Speed, which is an unecientific way of paying that operative cost increases more than in proportion to speed increase, Bconomical motoring and high speed motoring are inocom- patible, simply because no machine--or human being for that matter-- can be driven "to the limit" habitually, without wearing out abnormally fast, if not breaking down altogether, before its time. This fact is as old as motoring and everybody knows it, but still there is a class of fast drivers who grumble about their tire and repair bills and blame the tire and car manufacturers. Any one is free to enter the speedster class but he should do it with his eyes open and be a "good sport" when the bills come in. It is the tire that is the "under dog" and gets the brunt of high speeding. One of the leading car manufacturers says, in his instruc tion book, under the heading "Cost of Speed": "Tires, for instance, last twice as long on a car that is driven at fifteen miles an hour as they do upon cars that are driven at thirty miles an hour." These figures may pot be exaet, but the general truth of the statement is unquestionable.
