What he was trying to do is find the best pressure for the fronts to grip, and then increase the rears to reduce grip and allow them to slide. Higher pressure means there will be a smaller contact patch. I originally had the rears lower than the fronts, thinking that the tire would roll onto the sidewall a bit and then slide. My instructor races front drive cars, so I'll accept his advice as sound, and since it seemed to work, I can't argue otherwise.
He also made a comment about not reducing the fronts below 30lbs and which point the tires will roll too much.
