No tracking is pretty simple, i meant your sentence didn't make any sense lol, or at least i didn't understand enough to give you a useful answer. lol

What on earth are their tracking measurements about, -14/+14 what?

Do it the old school way - bit of string and a tape measure, guarantee it's just as accurate if you do it carefully.

The rest of the sentence - the bit about bushes, something after new ones and going in or out - still doesn't make sense to me, tried reading it a few times, but no magic moment of understanding has come lol.

the figures (-18) are directly from the machine that's checking the alignment; measures in minutes of a degree.
his reads a + number when it should be a - number, his wheels are pointing the wrong way.
