That is only sort of true.
All CSX4xxxLA cars were built by HST.
Not all HST cars were CSX4xxxLA. In fact, only a small portion.
All carbon fiber cars were HST.
HST was a supplier of both carbon fiber and fiberglass cars.
Some dealers chose to avoid the HST-built cars, while others preferred them and I believe until HST folded would specify HST rollers.
