Does this tail even do anything?

Decided to run the car with air dam and “tail” at next weeks race.

Been running in standard GT configuration most times. (Recently repainted back to original green)

Good looking car! I would think that the speed would make a big difference. There was a study a few years back that indicated that the outer edges of the rear were the best spots for downforce while having the center of the trunk area "spoiled" as well will reduce the straightline speed because of too much drag.
