Very interesting. Assuming that this is the rear suspension (based on the inboard configuration of the toe link bushing), I notice that the toe link is equal in length and in the same plane as the lower control arm, unlike C-4 and later Corvette suspensions that have a longer toe link. This would reduce or eliminate bump steer in the rear suspension. Some production cars actually use some bump steer (roll steer) to "tighten" the car at maximum performance, causing a push that keeps an idiot from backing into the guard rail on an on ramp. This Lambo configuration is very sophisticated and very race car oriented. Bravo.

At the end the energy transfered to the setup is less, so it loses efficiency, but it's totally awesome the way it looks, now, if they had the capability to be adjustable, I have a few designs for the setup I'd like to check later (by later I mean when I'm at university and I get the chance to design my own stuff), they'd be a lot cooler, there are a lot more ways to save space and still not lose handling and other stuff...
