My 1978 Corvette indy pace car seems to track poorly. The rear axle appears to be in poor allignment. In what ways is the rear axle adjustable?

toe is adjusted at front control arms with shims.camber adjusted with off centered washers at inner control arms. set to gm standards. i set camber with a driver and a passenger in car and 1/2 tank of fuel. on a level surface move car about 20 feet to let camber center. at back of car look to see which way tires are leaning . adjust camber by rotating off set washers left or right to center tires. you must jack car up to adjust. after each attempt mover car about 20 feet to center camber. don't forget to tighten nut on back side of off set washers. toe is more difficult take to a alignment shop
