Check on JDP_mototsport page today, looks like they put a ZR1 wing on their racing GS

Yeah he runs in the Optima events that we do. Rich W. from Able Chevrolet helped him acquire it. I'll try to post a few pics.

Definitely makes it hard to get stuff in and out of the hatch area. Looks awesome though if I were to track my car.

We have a similar build going in the shop and I will post pics once complete. It's about as close as you can get to bolt on, but there is a few modifications you need to make unless buying the painted bumper cover as well.

Does the brace behind the bumper attach to existing mounting points on the back of the car? Or do those have to be added?

Now he just needs to drop in a ZR1 motor to not be a poser.

This is actually what I think more people need to consider. A GrandSport, modified over time, using the ZR1 parts bin could create a pretty monstrous NA track car.

He's turned the wick up on the engine that came in it. It runs pretty darn good.

^^ I concur, I saw this car at LS Fest West in the Auotxx event and it was tearing it up.

Interesting how it attached to the car.....

You mean embarrassing ... kinda sad that this is what the engineers came up with for slapping a wing on the car.

Not a fan of wings but the TIKT setup looks way better than OEM ZR1.

RichieRichZ06

Not sure what you mean by embarrassing. The install is clean and looks much netter than most aftermarket uprights, brackets and holes that get cut in parts to install. When properly installed the supports are stronger than I thought they would be.

I get they probably wanted to save costs but they should've made a bumper for the ZR1 instead of slapping on a spoiler delete.

Can someone find the part number for this?

spinkick

did he add aero to the front of the car to balance things out? That wing adds a ton of DF

That is a shop car that runs the Optima Ultimate Street Car Challenge series.

I don't consider this a poser move in any way. The wing was installed to be functional and it secures to the frame vs. bolting onto the hatch.

Calling a modified Grand Sport built for track events a poser is about the same as calling a ZR1 convertible owner with high wing and chrome wheels bragging about the HP he will never use at his local Cars & Coffee a poser because most tracks won't even allow him on.

To each his own, but I think this build looks great.

What does it cost? Is it a self-install?

BrunoTheMellow

I mean... If you're asking if it's a self install, then no.
