It's just toed in a little normally, but certainly not worth doing the tracking without setting camber at the same time & checking castor as they all affect each other - ie as you make one adjustment it affects the others (3d puzzle with added complication of settling the suspension after each tweak).

Generally if folks are worried about the tracking it's the thrust angle which requires a full 4 wheel alignment or the LSD playing up (crabbing on/off power)?

Always toe in, toe out will give you VERY twitchy steering, good for the track but no good for the road.

It's a pittance for the improvements you get biggrin

My geo cost £400 all but a few pence and it's the best money I've spent on the car by a country mile.
