What do you base this off of? Does it
look rigid to you, or have you actually tested this in a real world situation?

How about using Mustang II
Geometry? Most people that use MII geometry don't actually use any real Mustang II parts either- They use chrome plated fabricated street rod replacements. Just like this frame appears to use.

Combined with their new rear 4-link and subframe connectors and a good set of sticky tires this setup will make .9G's with ease.

Do you possibly know what the bumpsteer number are? How about camber gain, or initial caster settings?
IF this company's front and rear are able to pull a .9 lateral g on a skid pad, I'd give all the credit to the tires.
This is a hot rod front frame, looks dictated form on this item. If you are serious about open tracking the vehicle, this isn't your frame.
