Consider the rake of a car where you want the nose lower than the tail to cut through air on straights. Now put a wing that lifts the tail and presses the nose down.
Great point! I hadn’t considered the rake. It still seems like having a high rake (which increases downforce) fighting an inverse wing (reducing downforce) would increase drag more than anything else though.
