I was just messing with you...yes, theoretically it will help your ET, as you are moving weight from the front of the car to the back. This will not only make the front lighter and easier to get off the ground, but will also add weight to the rear to give you traction. I know lots of people do this, but I'm not a hardcore drag guy, so I've never done it. I can't tell you how much it actually helps.

It helps more to swap it out with a lightweight battery. And its ALOT less hassle.
