Maybe its just the angle, but it appears that by connecting the pushrod to the upright, they are able to maximize the motion ratio - normally this pushrod would be connected to the LCA somewhere slightly inboard of the balljoint.

What's interesting to me is that nothing shown here is outside the realm of suspension engineers knowledge for the last 20 years, but its taken the modern push for performance to actually build something like this. Amazing how similar the control arms look to vette pieces, same bushings and same mounting dogbones.

thanks for sharing the pics.

And I won't even comment on that insane CF strut the other guy posted. Where does the money come from !
