talking about D-Types, 207RW, that you show, is a replica, (with FIA papers though) and if you have seen a yellow one, that was made 15 years ago....

I don't think to much about the fact there are so many replica's around as long if they are good replica's its not that big a problem for me ! Lola T70, Chevron B8/B16 , GT 40 , Cobra , E type Lightweight ...
So is the case for many of these Listers

Yes, I earlier mentioned the 13 T70s.
5 are real, 2 cars claim the same (real) identity
6 are "real" replicas...
I haven't checked the B16s. Some say that out of the 23 made, only 5 or 6 now existing, can be traced back to their original identity.
When reading the reports for instance on 10-10, I can't help thinking that the six hours is increasingly an English club race on foreign territory, where srutineering and admission are governed by British rules.

Big bussiness those continuation cars ! Historic racing has become so big there is a huge demand for classic racingcars and there are only so many original cars to go around.
And yes the 6 Hours is like an all English event Last year in Le Mans (classic) i had the same impression
Top Hat Masters a mixture of all sorts of cars
The Spa 6 Hours race (102 cars participating) won by the Lynn GT 40 who also won the Tour Auto this year.
What's up everyone, I'm new to the forum and just wanted to say hey. Hopefully I posted this in the right section!
