OVERVIEW

The 8th generation (C8) of the Chevrolet Corvette is an engineering marvel, combining the brute force of an American V8 with the poise of a modern mid-engine supercar. However, the Corvette engineers left some room for aerodynamic enhancement to lower lap times and increase driver confidence. 

The V1X Rear Wing is a great addition to your Chevrolet Corvette Stingray (C8), increasing downforce significantly in the rear, enhancing confidence on track, and reducing lap times. Designed to work on the factory trunk, the rear wing bolts on easily and improves performance that this sports car can utilize on track. Similar to the Swan Neck UCW Rear Wing, the V1X Swan Neck Wing is developed to utilize the low-pressure zone underneath the wing element to pull the car downward, dramatically increasing downforce with a minimal penalty in drag. Due to the top-mount system, we observe an improvement in overall downforce, as more bottom surface area is available to take advantage of the clean, low-pressure zone.  However, with the longer chord and wider profile, the V1X has much higher capacity for downforce. The V1X wing at 2 degrees AOA (Angle of Attack) produces more downforce than the UCW does at 12 degrees AOA, and with less drag! Talk about next-level performance!

Utilizing state-of-the-art analysis software and wind tunnel testing during the R&D process, we optimized the airfoil for performance for the given build volume, which is derived from the V1X. Further utilizing CFD, we ensured the rear wing sees adequate airflow while installed on the car and performs well.

During the design process, we utilized in-house scan data. This results in a product that features a near OEM fit and finish. Even the uprights have been designed to mount in an area already disturbed by airflow, minimizing the drawbacks of installing functional aerodynamic parts. We engineered the wing to blend into the vehicle's profile while being capable of balancing out significant front aerodynamic systems like our Front Splitter Kit! 

The V1X Swan Neck Rear Wing is the perfect addition to the track goer looking to push the limits of their vehicle with a carefully designed product that balances out a significant front aero package. 

V1X Wings are assembled per order and will ship within 5 business days from receipt of order unless otherwise specified.
