i mean i already fixed all my arms and the frame supposedly straightened out, but i just dont like the feeling thats it was bent and it might not handle as good. i mean i never taken it to the track so i wouldnt know if it handles differnt.

Bent frames are no biggie, worst case is that you drive with your steering wheel turned slightly left or right to go straight. Some people cry about it, but its still driveable. Some intances if it's soo jacked up, you'll be SOL, but other times it just some quick bendages will do the trick, even when its hella jacked up, there shouldn't be a problem preformance-wise, you'll just have to compensate the extra steering since it won't be aligned perfectly

just go to a collision center, pay the couple hundred, and they'll straighten it better than stock. time takes its toll on a car, and itll turn out better than before. i had to get my frame straightened..they have all the specs and make it perfect. no biggie, nothing to even worry about :)
