Indoors on the track with no sidewinds , its OK. Advantage: linear flow around the disc rather than the turbulence, stirring even Bladed spokes raise in the air.

... or as a special event Time Trial (Big Prize Money Triathlon) rear wheel .. is less likely to have side winds steer for you, open spoked wheel in the front, then ..

And there is a Loud hollow rumble as they roll along the surface (quieter on a smooth wooden Velodrome track) rather than on the road.

Reads like the OP really does not need them , for even asking the question phrased like they Did.

Trying to stretch the Hour record ? Now, 52.937 KM, next goal stated by Pro Bradley Wiggins is At 55 KM.
