Hi Marc, > The GT-40 made by ERA are not regarded as > "copies" within the car community: they are > "developments". Understood, and agreed. But, who makes that distinction between "copy" and "development"? As I said, there technically is no such thing as a copy...no two physical things are %100 identical. Even if one of the milling machines used has a better tolerance, that is technically an improvement, and therefore could possibly not be considered a "copy". Changing material, for say the mount, could also make it not a "copy". Unfortunate that semantics is(are ;-)...
