Remember this is a dedicated racing car, so the suspension is rather stiff and the geometry set-up for track use - I would not want this configuration on a street car!
Wow, with that low rear end, I would guess the lower control arm is past horizontal such that the rear roll center is "below ground", thus increasing the rear roll couple, or have you relocated the lower control arm pivot points?

Anyway, regarding de-snorkling, it looks like a good idea to me for a race car, and I think I'm going to do that on my part-time race car that is almost never driven in rain anyway.

Good luck...
