Madman is correct, go get it scaled.
If you can’t get to it soon, try doing this;
Unhook driver side link
Sit car on level ground in race trim
Sit in the car with all your race gear
Have someone adjust the right rear end link so it will line up with hole with no preload.
This is only a band-aid until you get it scaled

It's weird too, cuz sometimes she'll twist (usually only if she spins) and other times the fronts will come up even, but then in that one pic you can see that even though the front is even, the rear is still twisted, so i'm not sure what's up. Here's another still shot and video, she looks straight from the front, but no back shot too see if she's straight back there.
