"Oh downforce... Crap we forgot about that"...I think they will experience major difficulties if they try. Never mind the vibration, front end lift is what would worry me. I see no way to keep the nose down.
I believe the center of thrust is above the center of gravity and will tend to push the nose down. Also, I think that slim yellow line in the picture may be the canard viewed on edge?Also the step function in torque when they light the afterburner will tend to raise the nose.... What they need is a front end canard.
