If your starting out with a car that has generally very low RC, then your statement of raising RC will add more traction would be true. Otherwise its compeletly dependant on the track surface traction.
On high bite tracks it will make the car respond faster than the driver can react to it. Hence edgy, touchy, squirly.
It depends on the surface
High traction track generally prefers lower RC
Loamy low traction prefers higher RC
Dusty low traction prefers sacrifice, softer balanced springs with slightly higher RC to limit excessive body roll.
