Description
Voltex Swan Neck mount GT Wings are now available for purchase! Two styles are offered in Type 10 and Type 7. The biggest difference between the two is the depth of the airfoil. Type 10 uses a 270mm and the Type 7 uses a 355mm, which also includes a different shape.
*** Price includes Special Base
What Does a GT Wing Do?
A VOLTEX Racing GT Wing is a high-downforce aerodynamic element engineered to generate substantial rear downforce with minimal drag penalty. Unlike stock spoilers or “lift-reducing” duckbill wings, VOLTEX wings utilize high-aspect, optimized airfoil profiles and precision mounting geometry to produce predictable, scalable aerodynamic grip at speed.
Key Performance Benefits
-
Significant rear downforce – Increases rear tire normal force for better traction and cornering stability
-
Improved high-speed balance – Complements front aero elements to reduce oversteer/understeer transitions
-
More consistent lap times – Aerodynamic load scales with speed for predictable handling through sweepers
-
Enhanced stability under braking – Rear grip aids control during late braking and high-speed direction changes
-
Tunable performance – Adjustable angle of attack allows dialing for minimal drag or maximum grip
On Track
In HPDE and time attack environments, the VOLTEX GT Wing delivers measurable mid- to high-speed grip gains. Downforce increases rear axle load without adding unsprung weight, improving exit traction and reducing rear step-out under power. On long straights, optimized profiles keep drag manageable so you gain net lap time, not just cornering grip.
In wheel-to-wheel racing, the wing’s consistent aerodynamic load helps maintain predictable balance under traffic and aero wash, improving control in overtaking and defensive maneuvers - especially in high-speed corners.
Trade-Offs
-
Increased aerodynamic drag at high angles of attack (depending on setup)
-
Requires proper chassis setup and aero balance (front aero + wing complement each other)
-
Installation and mounting structure must be rigid—otherwise effectiveness drops
-
Can amplify rear sensitivity if front aero isn’t matched
Recommended For
-
Intermediate to advanced track drivers
-
Time attack competitors chasing lap time gains
-
Wheel-to-wheel racers needing consistent aero balance
-
Cars with sufficient horsepower to benefit from downforce without excessive drag
Not Ideal For
-
Street cars with primarily low-speed driving
-
Drivers not yet comfortable with aero-induced changes in balance
-
Cars lacking complementary front aero components
Bottom Line:
A VOLTEX Racing GT Wing transforms high-speed handling by adding rear downforce that improves traction, balance, and lap consistency. It’s a precision aero tool for serious track and competition drivers - not just a visual upgrade.
