None of that. Safir GT40 is a good start, but what's next? It was later sold under John Wyer Automotive Engineering name.

GT40/R Competition.  Built by Hi-Tech/Superformance, the GT40/R is licensed by Safir GT40 Spares and is the only car authorized to be called a ‘GT40®’.

well, that was a struggle. :nod:

I found the info at thsi website:

<<< Link Removed >>>

... was captioned as a Lightweight, but it seems as though they weren't all so designated.  Take a look at entry number 10 and 11 in the list you provided.

Thanks for the point. ;D
