The BayBee body for 190mm touring cars is the fifth release from ZooRacing - an evolution of the ultra popular DogsBollox body.
With an almost identical roof line, the roof was lengthened slightly in order to further reduce air resistance and achieve the higher cornering speed that stock drivers long for.
The front is completely new. Rounder - for increased cornering speed under load and for more precise handling in fast corners - without dragging the wheel. This improves both the top speed in these areas and the overall cornering behavior, which becomes smoother overall.
At the same time, the steering behavior at slow speeds does not get any worse. The BayBee body allows razor-sharp handling in the technical parts of the track.
Compared to the existing ultra LCG DogsBollox body, the BayBee offers an even lower shoulder line, hood and trunk lid in order to be able to mount the body even lower on the chassis. All of this results in an even lower center of gravity.
Part of the BayBee package is also the completely redesigned rear wing. A curved design that follows the new rear end line and uses the airflow even more efficiently.
Other aero features include the revised side area - for further improved air flow and increased stability at the same time.
The stiffeners on the trunk lid provide the stability that today's modified speeds expect from a body.
Last but not least, the visually appealing front section not only provides a cool look, but above all also provides targeted airflow - for maximum results.
At the top of the BayBee highlights is the new ZOOlite deep-drawing process, which reduces the total weight of our 0.7mm thick body by approx. 10g.
This ensures that the body fits into all regulations that currently stipulate a minimum body weight - without wasting a single gram.
Of course, the body is still available in super light 0.5mm material. If you want to get the maximum performance out of your car and are not subject to a minimum weight, you should go this route.
A number of anti-tuck features are already integrated for stable and safe use on the racetrack: the structured structure of the side panels and stiffening ribs in the rear area ensure a high level of safety, even if the person behind unexpectedly knocks.
All the beads and edges come into their own, especially in the ultra-light version. The body becomes very light and at the same time remains dimensionally stable under load.
Another gimmick are the wheel arches, which allow the body to be positioned particularly far forward or far back. A center offset of +4mm or -4mm is possible. This results in a total freedom of movement of 8mm!
The body is available in three variants:
AIRLITE: 0.4mm thick - 45g weight without paint and stickers, including wings
LIGHTWEIGHT: 0.5mm thick - 55g weight without paint and stickers, including wings
REGULAR: 0.7mm thick - 83g weight without paint and stickers, incl. wing
For example, the 90g rule of the ETS is very easy to achieve with paint and stickers.
A special feature of the ZooRacing bodies are the two-stage window decals.
With stage 1, the first step is to tape off the entire window and paint the entire body.
Then remove step 1 and stick the smaller step 2 into the window. This is how you can paint a perfect window frame!
Please note that if you have light paintwork, you should first put a white background on it - if you want to paint a dark window frame.

EFRA legal! EFRA4074
The body is delivered unpainted and not cut out.
Rear wing, a small decal sheet and window stickers are included.
Not a complete car, no wheels - these only serve to better illustrate the intended use.
Important NOTE:
The thinner the car bodies become, the more sensitive they are. This applies to production, storage, transport and, of course, use.
The bodies may have minor creases (particularly in the rear area).
Unfortunately, small creases and folds cannot always be prevented and we cannot really see them through the bag.
At this point: Form follows function - you won't win any beauty prizes with super thin bodies. But you're quick :-)
