Default tracking done but still pulling

I got the tracking done last week, but it's still pulling a little to the left. He said that the n/s rear is a nats out but I have no adjustment on the rear. Could this be the problem.

Did they measure the castor angle, if yes what are the final numbers?

Sorry to hijack your thread but my car also pulls into a corner if I lift off the power during a corner. It does this even a modest acceleration when driving nowhere near the limit.

Had the alignment checked and was mainly OK, results below. The guy at the alignment centre said the R rear camber being out was nothing to worry about.

Any opinions ?? Is it worth me getting some rear camber bolts ?? Is the tightening of cornering angle when lifting off the power just the way the 4x4 system etc works ??

Swap your front tyres from left to right and see if it makes a difference. Often when a car has been driven with the tracking out it wears the tyre resulting in still pulling even when the tracking is corrected.
