If you go to the Protoform web page then go to page two of the "race reports" there is the write up about Monti Panzica.
The Summer Shootout was at my home track and I raced against Monti in USGT, He was very fast !!!

Can anyone take a photo of the Protoform ZL1 body mounted on a 190mm width car? I am just curious how much gap there is.

No. The Mazda Furai is only a working prototype. It's not being raced nor is it commercially available.

Monit could drive a 2x4 with wheels and beat my ass....

That looks like what I would need for Tamiya's Ferrari 458 Italia Challenge body, as I don't think a wing is included-nor wing mounts for that matter.

In regards to the question of whether or not a body is legal for USGT (and I write this before having read the actual rules) comes down to is the body in question a realistic representation of a "production" sports car available for sale to the public and/or is it a car that is or has raced in a production car based "GT" racing series.

You'd think that the rules would say that, but they don't. Not even close...
