Default drives toed out

Just checked my drives for toe out of curiosity. 1/2" closer at the propshaft compared to the front torpedo. Anyone else check theirs? Just curious if any others are this way. I set it straight.

My old 42 and new 38 is set to 0 - 0 or streight. Jeff Harris from Fountain, indicated that on a factory standard x dimension set-up, 1/2" toe-in or out is negligable. I did adjust things just to see and found no noticable differences. I bet if your x-dim was up there like the race boats you would see some change. My speed really didnt change either. I only went to a 1/2" max so both in and out. I set them back to streight which was the factory settings
