(8 track days and tons of street miles on this setup so far)
Clearance at ride height does not remain the same throughout the range of articulation unfortunately, but it does appear that you probably have enough clearance. However, I would still check for a bit after install. Will be easy to see rubber on the bar if there is a clearance issue.

Edit: looking closely at the photo it does look like at least some contact has occurred, judging by the wear of the injecting molding parting line at the section under the bar.
