Does anyone still pull their headlight to get the cool air on their filter?

i do and ive seen quite a few other guys who track theirs as well.
i bought a cheap repro headlight off ebay and cut open so it has a better factory look than nothing in there at all.

I do it, not sure what it's worth on lower power cars, but it consistently nets me over 1mph in the 1/4. Not huge, but it's not nothing. My headlight is "funneled", not removed completely.
