Front end setup (Drag Racing)

What possible benefit would having the nose raise possibly give you? Every ft-lb of torque wasted in lifting the front of the car (from the rear) is a ft-lb not being used to move the car forward. I would concentrate on traction and let the nose do what it wants. Sure it's gonna come up a little, but I wouldn't spend any money trying to see how high I could make it go. A better approach would be to move as much weight away from the front of the car as possible.
