Yes, a rear spoiler will slow down a drag car.

My Aspen has run the strip both with and without the factory R/T spoiler. The rear spoiler created enough drag to cost me 2/10 of a second in the quarter @ 110 mph. It also creates enough down force that the lip of the fender just starts to glaze the corner of the tire where it never did before.
