in the rule books there are some limitations on what you can do to the body... x number of inches past the wheels in the rear, y number of inches longer than the wheel base... so on and so forth...
Very few of the "professional" teams have access to windtunnels for testing, NASA engineers to diagram their air flow efficency... etc... most invest all their money into 7,000 HP engines and their replacement parts
