What was the rear tracking like? As the standard setup isn't adjustable.

 

Also what was the camber of the fronts?

Tie rod slightly bent and the guy who set up the tracking was far sighted?

If tie bars are bent i'd expect the guy done the tracking with the bent tie rod, and you can feel the car a bit whobbly/pulling to one side under braking.

What about the rear tracking?
