I guess I look like an ***** here but I've never heard of such a thing. I go to a street legal car race at the tradk every Friday night and have never seen such an event. As a matter of fact, everyone I know does it and it DOES help traction. I had 35 lbs in the rear tires when I first started and as good as the track was and as slow as my car was, I couldn't hook up. I lower them to 15 lbs when I race and fill them back up when I'm done. I'm not trying to tell you thats what you should do. I'm just saying that it worked for me and many others safely. By the way, i'm not flaming anyone, just my opinion from my experiences. No disrespect intended to anyone.
