thanks mark
Approaching a zero degree beam would mean getting closer to a pure trailing arm setup. There would be no camber gain in corners so wheel camber would equal your roll angle (+-whatever your static camber setting was)
I would imagin that six degree's has been worked out to be a good compromise for road and track use. A zero degree beam would be perfect for drag racing though, similar to a live axle in that it would keep both wheels perpendicular to the track surface.
