spray Pam on tires before hitting the mud?

As has been mentioned, some dirt track racers I know will put WD40 or cooking spray on their suspension and frame components to help keep things cleaner when the track is wet/sticky, but a good friend doesn't because his logic is that he can either spend 5-10 minutes spraying WD40 on his car before the race, or spend 5-10 minutes spraying his car with the power washer after the race and get the same result with less expense (they have their own power washer). I suppose it all depends on the application. Motorcycle fenders makes sense to because they fit closer to the tire and build up could be a problem. Late model race car with no "fenders" over the tire, not as much. I've never thought of putting it on tires.

Great for the inside of a horse's hooves when in the snow...

I should put some on my dog's feet so she doesn't get ice balls between her toes...

OK, that's thinking about it backwards. Purpose of this application in racing is to eliminate the weight of heavy clay/mud and give you a potential weight advantage against the competition.

I have to agree with spending money on cleaning instead of spray.

Pam sprayed on my vehicle may just encourage bears to be more interested.

No disagreement with you on that one, especially on the professional level, but not at the level he was racing at.

a little "cleanup lube" makes it enjoyable, even the morning after.
