LG Motorsports GT2 Splitter LIMITED TIME SALE
Our GT2 ZR1 front splitter is a direct evolution of our ALMS GT2, GrandAm, and Spectre Hill Climb Corvettes and the aero work from those programs. Initial prototypes were tested for two years at the Spectre Hill Climb on our very own ZR1 and have won both years and set new Corvette records each time we went. We added a full 3+ inches of horizontal surface to the ZR1 splitter for a massive increase in downforce along with a pair of tunnels to each side to give your Corvette the front bite it needs on track.
You can purchase the splitter with or without our install mounting kit.
MSRP $2995.95, limited time sale of $2695. + shipping
Sale is limited to 5 splitters.

awesome splitter btw!
Currently no, due to the size of it, making it out of glass and keep the strength would make it weigh a ton. Really don't want to add any weight to the front of the car, at least no more than you have to.
How do the front tunnels work to add downforce? They seemingly would decelerate the air/create pressure in front of the tire...I'm not following. Only theory I'm seeing is you get some venturi effect on the corners...air compresses and accelerates then the tunnels act as diffusers, so creating low pressure under the edges of the splitter...am I on the right track here? No detriment putting all that air into the wheel well?

You are thinking exactly right, it is there to create a low pressure area under the splitter to help pull it down to the ground. Which brings about another point, because this splitter does have under body aero you need to make sure you have the suspension setup to deal with it, because if the car is to low and you loose air through the tunnels you will effectively loose downforce as well. We did this to add downforce without having a 6" splitter on the front of the car.
Because of where the air is going to exit in front of the tire, there is no issues with aero. You can help this by adding dive planes to the side of the nose too though.

Do you have anyone running this splitter without switching to coilovers? Didn't you guys run this on the shop zr1 with leafs and the mag ride shocks?

Everything was tested on the shop ZR1 and the first version of the splitter was ran on the car without tunnels and without coil overs.
The second design added the tunnels and a angle change, and still ran the leaf springs. During the hill climb we only saw 145-148 mph on the longest straight and it was starting to scrape the leading edge of the splitter and in some of the quicker corners. With the stiffer spring of the Z06 and ZR1 cars you could get away with leafs on the car on slower tracks. A high speed track like Texas World, Sebring, Road America.....it is going to need coil overs on it, or at very least a stiffer leaf on the car to keep it off the ground.
You can see in the pics below how far it is pushing the car down here to the point of the tire almost tucked in the fender.

Thanks for the info. I like this piece but I really don't want to go to coilovers. I'd be in the 160+ mph range, and 140ish two other times throughout the lap. Just kicking around the idea and I'm not even sure I could find a leaf that would support the downforce this splitter could make. Do you guys have pre made inlets for brake cooling ducts or would I need to fab something up?

Check with Hyperco they have a few different leaf spring replacements for the cars.
For the ducts there are a few different options you can go with, depending on what you have on the car right now. Those are sold separately.
