Rear toe question

Rear toe question
When I got my car aligned, it came out to .11* on the left rear and .18* on the right rear. I've noticed that my car wants to go to the right slightly all the time and I'm wondering if this variance can be the cause. Is this a large differnce?

I'd say that was a pretty significant difference, and yes, it is probably why it wants to go right. If the rear toe settings are not exactly equal WRT the center-line of the car, it will go down the road a little sideways. You will wind up compensating for this by having to turn the steering wheel a little, and that is what you are feeling.

There are a lot of factors;
If it is a 944, it can be devilishly hard to hit even numbers. You have to be doggedly determined and/or a bit lucky to hit them in any event. If it is a eccentric-lateral-toe-link car, there is NO excuse for it whatsoever, under any cirucmstance.
The more powerful the car, the more noticeable the cross-toe/camber deviations will be. That is too much deviation for even a street car of any sort, let alone a car that sees track use.
