its very hard to say what the "best" is but you can't go wrong with any of the protoform bodies, they have rubber specific ones marked in "R". I use a LTC-R for rubber racing and DODGE stratus for indoor foam racing.

the mazda 6 and mazdaspeed 6 are still the most raced cars at the track. I also like the parma m which is mazda .

I would have to agree. Protoform is the best choice. I would recommend getting 2 bodies. Get a LTC-R and a Mazda speed 6. This will cover you for any track. After that it is personal preference.

You can't go wrong with the Protoform Mazda 6. It is a very well balanced body. From there you can look at the Speed6, LTC-R, R9-R, etc to gain some steering if necessary. I always try the new bodies when they come out and always seem to end up back at the Mazda 6.

Is a Mazda that much better than a Stratus ( I think that's Dodge, by the way, not Ford) on carpet, low grip? Which of the million (mazda speed, mazda 6, LW, etc) versions is that?

Wow, a FORD stratus? When did ford start making that car :lol:

Perhaps he has some inside knowledge of a Ford takeover of Dodge. Could happen I guess. ;)

Protoform Mazda 6 but if more steering is needed or if your a more aggressive driver then the Mazda Speed 6. I haven't tried the R9R but i have seen it and it looks very nice as well.

When FORD buying Chyslar next month...then it will be FORD Stratus and FORD Charger/Magnum/300C....:lol:

For outdoor...yeah, Speed6 or any Mazda 6...mostly used (I think that is a better term to use in this case)

Where can I buy the cheapest protoplast form vehicle bodywork?
here in Sweden so the costs of a body about 40.34 USD .. on it, I do not think so, so cheap. Some tips? to buy 2 pcs bodywork for 80.68 USD is not attractive. : S but otherwise it is needed.

Thanks for the tips!

Zooberg, check if anyone in Europe stocks Frewer bodies. They're made in NewZealand, but I remember I saw them online in Europe some time ago. These are almost as good as Proline/Protoform, but should be a bit cheaper.

If all else fails, just buy something online from Hong Kong they're pretty cheap there (about 20-25US$ plus shipping). With the Euro now standing as it is, it should come cheaper to you.
