[Russell Sobie]

To be honest I find myself having more fun doing something similar... which is just not even showing up for qualifying until like 1 minute left. Instead I practice offline with 100% grip instead of wasting my time on a sub-optimal track to practice on. After joining at the last minute I get the added bonus of enjoying passing a good number of slower drivers like I'm playing Pole Position back at the arcade as a child. I typically still end up placed where I would during Qualifying at the end of the race, without the annoyance of having people plow into my ass on T1 because I'm reaction braking to the crowd in front of me, or similar.
