Even though it has an abrupt corner it's embedded within a favorable pressure regime,forcing attached flow.
Once past the rear edge of the front wheels there should be nothing but turbulence all the way down the rocker panel area,rendering the leading spat inoperative.
Also,since the rear of the Camaro is 'open',air cannot pool within the rear wheel wells as would happen more in the 'production' car,and will dive into the void immediately.
The MOONs do offer a solid surface for the air to flow over.On the Trans AM Firebird I think they were good for a 0.024 drag reduction compared to a stamped steel aspirated wheel.
