yes there are 200mm Lolas from Serpent and Frewer what look the same. Speedtech sells the Frewer.
But usually these bodies arenīt allowed at touringcar races if there arenīt special rules. Also you have to work heavily on the front shocktower and shockposition otherwise they wonīt fit.

yea i would think that the shock towers need to be of a narrow width setup. ahhh i think thats too much hassles! i might try cutting the body to allow the shock tower to pop up from the body haha :P im not interseted in the performance i just love the look of them... although i really disliked them when i first started in the hobby..

BT nothing beats the look of a 200mm NT 8 car race all wearing LOLA bodies, looks awesome and the racing is intense from the extra steering you gain!

That thing feels soooo dialed! Only thing that cripples it (on carpet) is the hood scoop

Just picked up a yokomo type-E dodge
best detailed one by far
got all the outlines around the windows & doors ridges in the bonnet down the side of the door

Getting very close to the tamiya detailed shells & that is saying some thing
well done yokomo

somehow..
i feel it is easier to drive the yokomo Type E dodge's body better then the mazada 6......
yeah... i know.. parking lot testing don't count.......
still waitting for my yokomo BD to arrive so i can put the rayspeed accord on it to try it out.....

i don'k know is it just me..... i like to run those good looking car body made by tamiya.
like the skyline or benz's DSM. they handle like nothing you can think..... Horriable...
but i still runs them because they don't look it what everyone else is running....
kinda boring seening 9 out 10 ppl runs mazada 6......
plus they don't really look like the car they are supposed to look like...
All slam down and curvy~

I recently picked up an HPI Vauxhall Astra for my Pro 4, wich I race on a pretty good sized outdoor asphalt track. So far it's done very well, I've even won a few races with it. I wanted something unusual, and it happend to resemble my girl's Jetta...
