That's a nice find, VT247. It's like taking an air dam to a whole new level.
But I'm afraid that the energy required to suck the air from under the car is much greater than any savings from reduced underbody drag. I remember reading (early-to-mid 90's??) that Mercedes (?) had wheels with fan blade shaped spokes to suck air out from under the car, but the losses from pumping air outweighed any gains.
