Default possible bent tq arm?

So I went to the track last night to mess around and make some n/a passes. The car has a built 9inch with a sphoon chromoloy driveshaft with the spicer u joints. Also running hoosier qtps leaving at 6500rpm. The car does have the stock tq arm in it still and when I put the 9inch in I think it threw off the pinion angle as a had a slight vibration. I've got about 20 passes or so on it and after 2 passes last night I noticed a pretty substantial vibration at 65mph. I am thinking that the tq arm is bent and really threw off my pinion angle. I hope is not a rearend issue. Also the car doesn't seem to be 60' like it was. Any other opinions are welcome. Iam going to check pinion angle tonight.
