There is quite a range to use depending on what you need and like. Same used to be true of 1/10 pan car racing bodies, back when I had a few less gray hairs.
Car had loads more front end, and good rear end with the now discontinued PF Corvette, and was actually quicker on the whole lap, where as the mulsanne had the highest top speed.
Think Canada has it right with using just HPI Shells, something Japan is close to, except they also allow in other makes, but NOT the PF Mulsanne and Sophia and NOT the Parma Blob (Sorry, the supposed Aston Martin).
