Yosemite National Park. A Studebaker LIGHT- SIX, piloted by Hart L. Weaver and carrying a crew of five men from the Chester N. Weaver Company, was the first automobile to reach the Yosemite National Park over any one of the three snow covered roads under its own power this year. . The car went over the narrow and dangerous Coulterville road, bucking snow as deep as ten feet in some places, arriving in Yosemite Valley, January 16. 2. Round Trip Record Between San Francisco and Los Angeles. On February 2 the same car, driven by Hart L. Weaver and James F. Gurley of the Chester N. Weaver Company, established a 7 round trip record between San Francisco and Los Angeles, a distance of 864.8 miles, in the sensational time of 21 hours and 23 minutes. 3. Coast Route Record from San Francisco to Los Angeles. f hours, 47 minutes and On the tound trip record of February 2 the Studebaker LIGHT-! SIX lowered the coast route record om San Francisco to Los Angeles by 2 hours, 35 minutes and 20 seconds. The former record was 12 50 seconds, the time of the Stude- baker LIGHT-SIX being 10 hours, 12 minutes and 30 seconds for the distance of 453.7 miles. The pilots were Hart L. Weaver and James F. Gurley. 4. Valley Route Record Between Los Angeles and San Francisco. On February 24 the Studebaker LIGHT-SIX smashed the valley route record between Los Angeles and San Francisco, running the distance of 411.1 miles in the remarkable time of 9 hours, 15 minutes and 50 seconds. This record was made all the more remark- able on account of the car having to go through a dense fog a distance of more than 100 miles between Tulare and Merced. James F. Gurley, The pilots were Hart L. Weaver and 5. Los Angeles—Phoenix Record. On the morning of March 23 the LIGHT-SIX left Los Angeles in an at- tempt to lower the fifth and only remaining record of consequence on the Pacific Coast. The 422 miles of ' desert trail from Los Angeles to Phoenix were made in 13 hours 16 minutes, and 2 hours 28 minutes were taken from the best previous automobile record. The railroad time is 14 hours 20 minutes, or 1 hour 4 minutes slower than the record established by the LIGHT-SIX. Hart L. Weaver of the Chester N. Weaver Company, Studebaker Distributors in San Francisco, made the following statement after the completion of the Los Angeles-Phoenix run: “These tests have demonstrated on the road every. thing that Studebaker engineers have claimed for the new LIGHT-SIX-cylinder car., When it is remembered that the bore and stroke of this car is only 3% x 4%, giving it a piston displacement of 207 cubic inches, and that the car fully equipped only weighs 2500 pounds, these records are all the more remarkable since most of them were formerly held by heavier cars costing much more than the Studebaker LIGHT-SIX. I am inclined to believe that the secret of this car’s wonderful perform- ance, and roadability is due in a very large measure to its remarkable balance. Halved or quartered the parts of the new LIGHT-SIX would weigh approximately the same. “In making the Los Angeles - Phoenix record I am frank to confess that despite my faith in the stamina of Studebaker autornobiles I could not believe that any car could make the speed over that desert road with its ruts and chuck holes that was necessary in order to lower the record by a large margin without falling to pieces. Any automobile, irrespective of weight, power or price class that can lower the record established by the Studebaker LIGHT-SIX will have my most sincere admiration.” This is a Studebaker Year NORWICH MOTOR CAR COMPANY ' .
