Can anyone explain what the merits of the different shells are?
As they have told you main 2 bodies are Protoform Mazda speed 6 & protoform LTCR. First one is more neutral and second one more aggressive.
Mazda 6GX it was supposed to be in the middle, but i never felt comfortable with it.
You have different manufactures like Bitty design, Blitz or Montech. Blitz and Montech are getting very popular. I have to tell that Nazda 3 from Montech is one of my favorites bodies when used with a High downfoce wing. It goes straight into middle from LTCR and Speed6 so it's ideal when ltcr is giving you too much steering and speed6 it's a bit lazzy.
I have tried some Bitty design, but I did not like the plastic, really soft.
I have never tried Blitz one, but most of users are liking them.

Racing 17.5T blinky I will get stuck with LTCR outdoors and Speed6 indoors.

Best regards
Javier
