I'm sure it does, but I doubt it translates into any measurable real-word difference on a solid axle drag race car.

I still say most people do it because it looks better

I would agree

To be honest the main reason I would not do it is I still drive the car on the street and love the new TT2s I got for it last year. Shortened axle would mean By By TT2s

old thread i know....i just bought a 02 ws6 that has a 9 inch in it...looks stock length to me...I know a 7.5bs with a 10 inch wheel will work but what about a 325/50 drag radial as well???? I know you guys are running that size on narrowed rear ends....please chime in...
