I have run the HPI Nissan GTR body and it was good overall with a neutral feeling. Not as much steering as the Porsche or rear grip with the flat wing design IMO.

The HPI BMW M3 GTR body was a disaster with very little rear grip I believe due to the stylish Tuner Style wing. I would like to try it again with a lexan wing like I have on the Porsche and see how it handles.

Another racer is using the HPI Acura NSX body with very good results in our 21.5 USGT class.

Here is the NSX that SS is talking about...
Does well on the track, I think that it feels balanced... also pretty low compared other bodies.
