                   Trip Report to Petroit,Michigan, May 19, through 25, 1968
                          The writer spent the week of May 20, 1968 at the Central Engineering
                   Offices at Highland Park and one day, Thursday, at the Chelsea Michigan
                   Proving Ground for the purpose of working on the race car aerodynamic test
                   program and follow-up on several potential areas of new business.
                          The aerodynamic effort occupied most of the weeks activity. Current
                   efforts are directed toward fabrication of a 3/8 seal           Q  n  lay model of the 1968
                   Charger which will be us       C   D  CL  as a mold pattern for a plastic wind tunnel model.
                   The fabrication of this model was directed and coordinated with the expected
                   race car configurations to be tested. The proving grounds was visited to view
                   the Charger race car and gather pictures and data for the model activity.
                          Other activities in the area of potential new business are reported in the
                   following:
                          1. Critical Fastener Torque:
                                 I discussed our current approach to measurement and control of
                   torquing operations with Mr. R. Mosher. He seemed pleased and stated the
                    roblem is/yin our hands since he has no time to follow it. He is extremely
                   interested in seeing drawings and hardwa            C D  eflecting our design detail as soon
                   as practical.
                          2. Engine Performance Indicator System:
                                 Discussions were held with the following people regarding feasibility
