Yea why not. The spoilers on nascars aren't much bigger and they reduce it by enough to stop the car from lifting off the ground.

Porches after 75 mph, the spoiler comes up and they claim it can reduce lift by up to 50%. If you've seen them before, there not that big. For spoilers it's not about size but how well it redirects the air.

Again, we buy these spoilers for looks, no ones trying to shed time off their lap with these. Plus they wouldn't be very efficient anyways since spoilers arent really made for autocross.
