That's Charlie Mitchells car... He bought it new and installed the kit when
they became available. He, and others were very helpful when I wanted to
re-create the kit on my car along with my power steering. He DID mention
that there was a later modification to help the bump steer problem but as
far as I know, he doesn't have that. I actually relocated the fixed position
of the heims from the A-arm to the crossmember to overcome some of that
problem. I haven't driven other cars for reference but was very happy with
the way it worked in the TU autocross...

But while it might have started as a Lew Anderson kit, it has a unique new 
modification which vertically locates the steering linkage. Quite 
Interesting.
