I will never understand the need to have skinny front tires.

I get the air resistance, road resistance part but I would like to have a bit more control personally

I'm not saying you're wrong but in addition to the friction benefits, you're forgetting the most important part; weight. Shaving ~50lbs of unsprung weight off the front end of the car is worth a legitimate amount of time in the quarter.
