As I was reading through the most recent 5.0 mag last night (July 2002, I believe) and drinking a few icey cold fermented beverages, I remember glacing at an article about improving your 60' times. Anywho, in this article a couple of the racers interviewed suggested negative 2 to 4 degrees of pinion angle for the street/strip application - if my memory serves correct.

I can check the article tonight and post back if you would like?

You may want to pick up the issue, it had some good tech related articles in it concerning pinion angles and how it relates to better 60' times.
