BTW, 2009 has a far more robust race history than 2557

Yeah, too bad CSX2009 doesn't exist anymore.

Get a clue, jeffy! You really think your ERA is "as real" as 2009? You don't know the entire history of 2009 from day one! Are you an expert on the rebuilding of that car? The family has owned that car for over 35 years and was put back together the way they wanted it. These 50 year old plus cars go through numerous changes over their life span. I'll bet very few of them look like they did when Carroll originally sold them. CSX2009 is an awesome car and restored (to the owners liking) to perfection. If you have seen this car in person, (which I have) you might understand. How could you even compare your ERA to this Shelby? You just plucked a feather from your silly little hat!!!

Yeah, they're both replicas. I like mine better. You can call "CSX2009" "real" all day. Doesn't matter. It isn't. It's prettier than before but it is now just a fantasy. Free country, they could do what they want. But you don't paint a copy of a Rothko over a ruined Jackson Pollack and call it "real".
