I'm confused about which printout is which. it appears that last year the rear toe was negative (toe out) while this year is positive (toe in). rear toe OUT would make the car feel pretty unstable, like the ass end wants to pass the front

My home grown method of measuring toe is to use Longacre toe plates to measure total toe, then a laser pointing on a reference point from the rear wheel towards the front (both sides) to make sure the thrust angle is zero
