Default Let's talk aero.

I've got a 2008 z06. It's in the process of becoming a track only car. What aero packages would you guys recommend? Currently, the car is stock aero and engine, but I was wondering what the consensus is as to who makes the best parts for a track only setup.

Happy Thanksgiving

Depends on your experience level and what your goals with the car are. If you're trying to go run TTU Timetrials or ST1 W2W racing then go aero.

If you're just getting into tracking the car then leave it alone and learn to drive it.

If you have the funds, and it's track only, I'd get ACP Fascia/splitter/undertray, hood, and wing....ALL IN CARBON

I went with Blackdog Racing's full World Challenge body and have been VERY happy and impressed with the panels. They are very well made and Blackdog is amazing to work with!
