Any one having the issue of rear tow being different from left to right? I attached a picture of rear.

Thank you

I also had this happen tonight while practicing. Of course the car was beat up a bit but i could not see anything in the control arms, or uprights that would create this offset. So either the hinge pins are bent, or the bulkheads are tweaked. I also checked the hinge pin holder screws and there all fine.

Any other ideas?

Check the screws as well as they bend easily during a crash

That is a massive difference you definitely have something that's bent, check the hinge pins, hinge pin holder screw and the rear bulkheads.
