Well put. I had my ERA at a pretty big show this weekend and an old fellow had been looking under my car's rear. He then came up and said "I see you have an independent rear, looks like a Jag, but you don't have inboard brakes. How'd you do that?" I told him that was the best question anyone had asked me at a car show and then spent the next 20 minutes talking with him.
