I understand that the traction bars are efficient in themselves, but what if they were used as a frame for a boat tail? Then they would have function to keep traction plus be integral in cutting the rear end wake of the car.

At this level, we are talking about pieces made out of CF or other very light weight materials. But is there any reaon that a FWD dragster cannot side skirt both front and rear wheels? If you look at the pic I posted, there is no way those wheels turn to any practical degree.
