Wing size of the C5R?

This is the box they check the size of the wings of the C5R and other race cars that race at this level.
Does anyone know what size this box is?

I think it's a Ferrari that races against the Corvette racing team. I want to make a full size wing to hang in my garage. Maybe put the vinyl strikers on it and have it painted to match the Le Mans car. Any one know the dimensions of the wing?

You really think so?

Box size = size of wing
Size of wing = Box size

With all you race fans out there y'all can't tell me what size it is?

This would make a good Win A Sig question.

Look for the ALMS rule book.
That looks like the Olive Garden Ferrari in the photo.

For this year the C5R wing has been slightly redesigned.

However the previous and current C5R wings are actually smaller than the ALMS box.

The reason being is that they race under a number of sanctioning bodies with different wing rules. They built the C5R wings to conform to the strictest and smallest sanctioning body rules.

I new C5R carbon Fiber Wing will cost you around $15,000.

BTW the Chevy store as some C5R body panels for sale....quite possibly a wing or 2
