Wat? Why in the heck would it be more unsafe from an aerodynamics point of view than anything else? 
In the same way a 599 GTO always takes off into the sky whenever you reach 150, because it doesn't have any "additional downforce" either?

whereas standard cars actually generate lift

I think you'll find all cars generate various levels of downforce - either with the body, the undercarriage or with various wings - whereas the physics generate lift. My point was rather based on the fact that people seem to believe cars "need" wings in order to not launch into the air at higher speeds, and even more strangely, believe MTM would launch a questionable product.
