Default Steering Advice Would be Appreciated

We drove our Cobra for the first time on Friday at Wakefield and the day went really well. The engine and gearbox were wonderful.
I've put a few pics in the gallery.

The steering however lacked feeling and down the straight the car 'floated' and felt really uneasy.

Until we can have it registered it is set up as a track car as follows:
Camber 3 Deg neg
Caster 1 Deg +ve
Toe 0.8mm neg

The steering rack is a manual rack off a small Subaru and has 3 joints from the column to the rack which isnt ideal but need to clear the exhaust with a gentle curve.
18x8.5 front & 18x9 Rear wheels/Tyres

We would be interested in any expert advice.
