Tunnel time, and CFD time, are not cheap. When I worked on the Viper GTLM program, the CFD team spent a couple months working on a wing just for Lemans, using a 96 core cluster. Not many small companies could afford something like that, and even then the wing was specific to one car, and one track. Generic airfoils, and pylons that allow for an adjustable angle of attack are about all you'll get.
