Default questions about tommy morrison lts that completed record run

I would like some information about the paint scheme on the zr-1 that did the endurance run records in 1990. What does EDS stand for and the eagle represent? What about the silver stripes? Lots of info on car in the 'Heart of the Beast' and 'Corvette from the Inside' books, but this has not been addressed. Thanks!

Electronic Data Systems (EDS) was major IT company started by H. Ross Perot after he left IBM. EDS was subsequently bought in 1984 by GM who sold it to Hewlett-Packard in 1996.

I believe the Eagle was Goodyear Eagle tires,
a sponsor.

No the eagle 🦅 was the EDS logo. I worked for them for 20 years.
