5th Gen Race Car

Do any of you have any idea who this belongs to or maybe a URL to official racing site? Or any info about this car what it runs on and how the body package was done... Anything about this car or any related info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

1st Gen = '67 - '69

2nd Gen = '70 - '81

3rd Gen = '82 - '92

4th Gen = '93 - '02

5th Gen = 2007+?

The car in that pic is an LS1 Camaro, so that's '98 - up, but still classed as a 4th Gen (you can tell by the headlights being rounded, vs rectangular).

Not to make you look dumb again , but it was '93-'97 that was the 4th gen LT1, '92 was still a 3rd generation car, so it goes '82-'92 and '93-'02.

that wing is probably for downforce to keep that rear planted at high speeds
not all wings are rice, some actually are functional-see some of those honda guys were right
but in all seriousness, on a street car, no real need for a spoiler but in a race car, he** yes
check out the c5-r
huge *** spoiler but all for a reason

its a race car for the track. Therefore i'm sure the wing works, so I don't really consider it rice. Do you consider the Trans Am series cars rice because of their wings?
