Unless that was the way it was before the crash, most likely something else is bent or shifted.

Look closely at all components. Was the car put on a frame machine?

ALL COMPONENTS SEEM STRAIGHT WITH NO VISIBLE (OR FELT) BENDS. CAR WAS NOT PUT ON A FRAME MACHINE.

THE CRASH WAS DURING QUALIFYING. FOR THE RACE WE RESET THE TOE AND EVERYTHING SEEMED FINE. (NO VIBRATIONS)
