You can do it that way at the track.... 
Has anyone run no filter....
ive ran no filter on the dyno before... but id be scared shitless to run no filter at the track...
if anything run a screen of some sort. just to stop a huge rock from finding a new home in your engine...

I used to pull the filter at the track with my Formula. One day it decided to suck up a plastic bag! luckily the sensor wires on the MAF caught it. From then on I always run a filter.

Reminds me of the 1mile shootout they do between hennessey, lingenfelter, mti and others. Hennessey ran his viper without a filter or screen and he did set the highest record but ruined a turbo by a rock being sucked into it.

when i ran my girlfriends camaro at the track and yanked the filter it made no difference over the k&n and lid. It was an auto too so there were no variations i just yanked the filter and ran the same 1/4 mile time. the trap speed also went down. i believe it was 13.4 at 105.
