Default design of the cars.

do you see any machpherson strut setups on current anything goes road race cars anywhere ? nope every single one such as indy etc will have double unequal length a arms. because then you get a veritcle plane when the suspension moves instead of a arc

they dont do it now for the same reason as most companies unibody construction and Lower cost .. yet if you look at most all out performance cars ie lambos freraries konigsegs corvettes etc you see the same thing double unequal lenght a-arms

Plus that early mustang has very week towers and no cross member to tie the frame sides together trust me I have driven both and you can actualy FEEL the car is alot stiffer up front when you hit bumps vs the tower and brace setup
