Two days ago I checked the wheel / chassis alignment with a Gorghi-Electr. unit (last generation wireless).

The driving behaviour and adjustments before the test were no good.
With more than 50 miles/hour the car started to drive with me, not the other way around. Accelerating the car started loosing rear end.

The test showed bad Toe and Caster on each front wheel.
Also the rear axle has been 1/2" to the left side out off chassis frame, as well as 1/2" unparallel to the front axle.

After adjusting the car now is much easier to drive and control.

Adjustments:
Front Caster -0,5° / -0,5°
Front Toe -1/8" / -1/8"
Rear Caster -0,83° in /-0,92 in
Rear Axle to chassis side by side 0,03°
Axle to Front parallel 0,02°
