Car road test data, obtained in test series conducted in Peru, Venezuela, and Billings, Mont, are compared with Bureau of Standards' results which are in good agreement with tests performed in altitude chamber up to equivalent of 4000 to 5000 ft; at higher altitudes, however, tests show markedly greater drop in octane number requirement.
