Dale - it's the only part of your well-worded post that I didn't understand. Since you say that the modern bodies are not as realistic as you would like, how can a list of the older bodies, that were more realistic, have eroded the situation?
Isn't it the case that the EFRA list represents a list of cars far closer to your desire for "realistic cars"?
I hope you can talk this through with Russ, because the 12th Section of both the BRCA and EFRA has been far more consistent than the Touring Car Sections (where your experience is not unique, and the cars just look like 'blobs' now) about body approval.
PS - I too can buy a lot of the bodies on the EFRA list in the UK - just because something is not listed on a website doesn't mean it isn't available.
