Regarding the Alfa and Stratus it depends if you are speaking of the version 1 or 2 each.
The Alfa 1 has much more steering than the Stratus 1 but Stratus is easier to drive and more forgiving. Was my favourite body with all my cars until the TC3. But donīt works for me with the EVO3. Alfa1 worked very good on an older GM racing/Hong Nor TC4 using front diff. Never worked for me with a oneway.
Alfa2 have much more downforce than version1 but I donīt like itīs characteric.
Stratus 2 had not enough rear grip with the TC3 but is my favourite for the EVO3 now. Worked at every track since now. Just have finished the Mazda but have to try next time. But most people I know like the Mazda.
I have the Stratus version 2 and it is a really nice body to drive - but there is also a version 2.1, no?
I like the look of the Maza, it seems to have a very big front spoiler - I'd be interested to hear if it increases the front grip.

But it is the driver still who needs to improve
