The Chaparral was no ricer. It debuted the high mounted wing in 1966. The wing has the ability to pivot up and down, thus in the horizontal mode, the car was streamlined, while in the angled mode, it gave maximum downforce. BTW, did you read the article or not? The point of the Chaparral pictures was to show why the ZL-1 Corvette was produced in the first place.
