My thinking is that adding air shocks would be like having adjustable spring rate, yet at the same time having a stock valved shock that you have no idea where you are at in dampening. Just a guess. Better to do it with the proper spring and a shock you know is valved correctly. I guess if your class didn’t allow racing springs or racing shocks, they might help.

I agree with that comment, the rules on this class say no racing shocks.
