 Not sure why everyone does. I do for two reasons. First I have slip joint deal and lifting at middle would give you 2" lift before front end moved any.if loose. Second my floor jack will not fit under middle w/o raising front or rear some.LOL

I have talked to several people and right now I am thinking the problem is not enough power / too heavy front end. The car is not carrying front wheels so it does not transfer weight to rear wheels like it should. (I think) really hard to tell but with next race coming up in one week and limited what I can do going to raise wheelie bar up, tire pressure up, launch rpm up and possibly try to add a little weight to rear.  If that helps I will make more changes in the off season.
