Yes it can be unnerving if the wheels aren't large enough and the back is too high.
Even then it's an interesting feel that makes it exciting even at low speed, but one you can very much get used to if you're an accurate driver.
Surely though really you want to keep the steering arms running on the same plain as the tca's, if you invert them they are not and you are going to induce bump steer.
The only thing that will greatly effect distance on the z plane is angle. Irrespective of lower arm's position; the closer the steering arm angle is to 90 degrees at rest, the less variation in distance there will be under compression and therefore less bump steer. So if the arms at rest are closer to horizontal when not inverted, I'd bring the front end down some more.
Like the race boys, I want a setup where all the turn in I ever need can be achieved without taking a hand off the wheel.
Finally managed to get a lengthy video uploaded
Enjoy

Good video! The car looks very quick.
It looks like its been worth all the time and effort put into it!
Yeh it's definitely worked out as he hoped. Slicks next and a rear ARB but it won't be out again till next year.
Watched the full video and I was going to say slicks then saw your comments.
Tyres are fine in the beginning but when they're getting hot towards end of the video car doesn't start gripping same as before.
Yeh the tyres are really old now and that was one of the last sessions of the day, not bad for a shakedown day though.
He still isn't using the full rpm but until you have something chasing you at a similar pace it's not really worth using.
good showcase those suspension parts you make/sell :-)
