Because it reduces driveline losses through the tires. Unless this is a salt
car, 70 psi is twice normal inflation which will cause
less rolling resistance via a smaller contact patch and less power will be
absorbed by the normally flexing sidewalls. In the real
world, 70 psi would leave the vehicle with significantly reduced traction, but
in this case, the tie-downs prevent slippage. This
throws off the load calculations and creates an unrealistic environment. Most
likely, the tuning was done under real world
conditions and then the owner told the operator to get some good numbers.
If someone wants to use a dyno as a simulator so that tuning can be done, the
general goal is to get the dyno variables as close to
real world as possible. This would include a real world curb weight with 1/2
tank gas and a driver.
