Venus rising was used by GM for the C4 era "Corvette" Script run. As to the ZR-1 lettering its been speculated that its a mixture between venus rising and another font. I have no idea what the other font his however Venus Rising was the base font used. Compare it to you rear center Corvette logo and you will see what im talking about.
