The Result: Studebaker Commanders smashed distance rec- ords between 5,000 and 15.000 miles, and set new ones up to 25,000 miles. The two roadsters (list price $1745) averaged 65.31 miles per hour. and the sedan (list price $1545) averaged 61.98 miles per hour for the 25,000 consecutive miles. Staggers the Imagination Each of the three Commanders achieved the full 25,000 miles. If they had started due east from Atlantic City and traveled 25,000 miles they would have crossed the Atlantic Ocean, Portugal, Spain, the Mediterranean Sea, Italy, the Adriatic Sea. Albania, Greece, the Aegean Sea, Turkey, Arme- nia, Persia, the Caspian Sea, Turkestan, China, Manchuria, Korea, the Japan Sea, Japan, the Pa- cific Ocean, the United States, the Atlantic Ocean. Portugal, Spain, the Mediterranean, Italy, the Adriatic, Albania, Greece and finished somewhere in Turkey—all at an average speed in -excess of a mile a minute. In this latest supreme achievement The Stude- baker Commander has distinguished itself beyond all question as the world’s champion automobile. All stops for gasoline, oil, water and repairs were included in the 22,968 minutes during which the Commander Roadsters traveled 25,000 miles. At full retail prices for mechanical parts and labor, repairs on Roadster No. 5 totaled $107.50, or 43 hundredths of a cent per mile: and on Road- ster No. 6, $100.33 or 4 hundredths of a cent per mile. ! The sedan turned completely over on the icy track while going at a speed of 65 miles per hour. Repairs to the sedan, of course, were abnormal as a result of this wreck. Tt took an hour and 57 minutes to get the sedan back on the track and this is included in the total elapsed time. Mechanical repairs on the sedan, figured at regular retail prices for parts and labor, totaled S408.34 or one and sixty-three hundredths of a cent per mile. Every Move Checked Officials of the American Automobile Associa- tion—experts every one—took complete charge. Thirty-five of them were assigned to the most amazing test of its kind that the world has ever known. They were on the job every minute of the 16 days and nights during whick The Com- manders sped around the track at better than mile-a-minute speed. Studebaker furnished the cars and employed drivers and pit men. Determination and record- ing of time and distance were handled entirely by American Auiomobile Association officials. Chronometers were checked by the Bureau of Standards at Washington and certified correct within one-tenth of a second in 24 hours. . Electri- cal recording devices of great delicacy recorded every one of the 50,000 laps. Public Was Invited Advertisements in eastern newspapers inform- ed the public that Studebaker was trying for world records on the Atlantic City Speedway. Free admission was offered—night or day. Thousands of spectators watched the tests. Cars Checked Afterward At the conclusion of the run the cars were taken over by the Technical Committee of the American Automobile Association and completely disas- sembled. Only after careful scrutiny of all parts and of the engineering releases used by the Stude- baker factory in current production were the rec- ord-breaking Commanders certified as “strictly stock models, fully equipped.” The astounding feat of The Studebaker Com- manders proves that these great cars will not only give thrilling performance, easy acceptance of every task placed upon them by the ordinary own- ers but also economical operation and long life. What It Proves This greatest of all tests of automobile stamina proves five things of importance to every pur- chaser, quite regardless of the question of speed. 11t proves that Chief Engineer Delmar G. Roos, Research Engineer William §. James, and their able associates, with the use of all the vast facilities of Stude- baker’s proving ground and laborator- ies, have created in The Commander a car of such thoroughly sound design as to be well called “the greatest achieve- ment of post-war automotive engineer- ing.” 21t proves that this brilliant design has been carried out in plants capable of the finest precision manufacture known to the autuomotive industry. Every owner is given immediate evidence of Com- mander quality in the fact that it may be driven forty miles an hour the day he buys it. 3—It proves that in these plants The Com- mander is built by expert workmen, trained and supervised to carry out the great design in a worthy manner. 4—1It proves that the highest quality of al- loy steels and other materials have been used in the careful making of all parts of the car. 5—It proves that the great excess power of The Commander serves a useful purpose in giving the car long life through sus- tained hard usage. It is no wonder, in view of all the above, that The Commander far outsells the combined total of all other cars in the world of equal or greater rated horsepower.
