🏁 The ZooRacing Gorilla MAX is a Touring 1/10-scale, 190-mm FWD body specifically developed for front-wheel-drive competition. Designed to push the limits of aerodynamic performance, it features a streamlined roof profile, a redesigned front end, and a shortened rear section to improve top speed, stability, and cornering. Thanks to a balanced distribution of downforce between the front and rear, it delivers precise and dynamic handling on both technical circuits and high-speed tracks.
🚗 Manufactured from high-quality polycarbonate using the ZOOlite process, the Gorilla MAX combines lightness with aerodynamic efficiency. Its smooth side surfaces reduce turbulence, while its wheel wells allow for adjustment of the body position to fine-tune chassis handling. Available in 0.5 mm ULTRAlight and 0.7 mm ZOOlite versions, it has a claimed weight of 53 g and 72 g, respectively, when race-ready. EFRA-approved under reference EFRA5005, it comes in a transparent, uncut sheet, complete with a rear wing and finishing accessories.

🏎️ Aerodynamics and Handling
The Gorilla MAX was developed to meet the requirements of modern Touring FWD classes, where aerodynamic balance plays a crucial role in the vehicle’s handling.
- Balanced downforce: distribution of aerodynamic load between the front and rear axles for predictable handling.
- Top speed: Lowered roofline and streamlined surfaces to reduce air resistance.
- Improved handling: a shorter rear end to facilitate direction changes in tight turns.
- Cornering stability: optimized airflow to the rear wing.
- Aerodynamic adjustments: Widened wheel arches that allow the body to be shifted slightly forward or backward.
- Reduced turbulence: adjusted rear wheel wells and side windows with smoother surfaces.
🪶 Available versions
ULTRAlight – 0.5 mm
- Thickness: 0.5 mm
- Claimed weight: 53 g, race-ready
- Ultralight construction
- Designed for pilots seeking maximum weight reduction
- Suitable for competition use where performance takes precedence over durability
ZOOlite – 0.7 mm
- Thickness: 0.7 mm
- Claimed weight: 72 g, race-ready
- Manufactured using the ZOOlite process
