mine is at -2 also. if your spinning a hoosier 28'' tire,i have no clue. i cut 1.45-1.50 60's all day on a m&h racemaster cheeter slick 26x11.5x15 pulling the front wheels 3-feet or so. i have lca's w/relocate brackets,adj tq-arm,fraim welded,hal qa-1's all around,rear -2 and a panhard rod. i would play with the adj-of your suspenchion to dile it in. if that dont work the m&h tire hooks hard. hoosier has a good rep,but my bud didn't hook well with them. www.intercotire.com i'm moving up to the 27'' m&h drag slick for next year. goodluck to ya bro.
