Logically, if the car has the same kind of tires both front and rear and has close to a 50/50 weight distribution, any flexing, wrinkling or such will happen both during acceleration and during braking.

I'm sure a top fuel rail dragster is not similar to a typical car we drive down streets.

I also do not see how tire torque causes it to push down. If I let the air out of my tires and my axle is lower, is it pushing down harder on the tires now?
