Ned - indeed and they come out to play at Goodwood, Tour Auto, etc etc. Very few genuine cars are raced today. In the UK a couple of the most notable are CS(X) 2130 and COB 6008 which are the real deal.
To be honest, I wonder how some of these owners can live with themselves when they celebrate their so-called 'race wins'. But if you sponsor a headline race event, then (in Europe) you can rely on your fake going through sctuineering with roller rockers, trick suspension, 5-speed box (count the gear changes!!) while some of the genuine cars get the heavy treatment. Some many tales to tell, so few cheap lawyers....

1nt - No, neither.
