Look for this code in tracking.h:

// This value defines how many "slow loops" to wait before
// sending the tracking servo(s) to their next destination
// while in search mode. This provides a small delay for the
// camera to lock onto the target between position changes.
#define SEARCH_DELAY_DEFAULT 6

and increase this value to 10 and see it it starts working.
