Ingenious! Not sure if it's sturdy enough for track use (the thin, flexible heatshield material and minimal spot welds at the heat shield mounting locations), but I really like the idea! At a minimum I'd beef up the mounting locations with some type of bonding epoxy to act like a weld joint. Might not be ideal for laminar flow, but better than not having one and catching air with the rear bumper "diffusor" section! Wonder how it would work and look with the "diffusor" part of the bumper cut out - I'd be curious to try it but unfortunately my SRT exhaust is in the way...
