"I'm pretty sure" translates to>I don't really have a clue. But please, continue

Rusty was previously building his cars at Rayburns shop with relatively minor changes. This I know for a fact. He was increasing ground clearance, other expected stuff. Rayburns current geometry is actually pretty good. I see no reason why he wouldn't start from that product to do it on his own. That is common sense, but I don't know it for certain.

The fact the car was on z link would indicate some Rayburn is still there in the car.

Huck, Rayburns newest car is much newer and more modern than 2002. If "doing it on his own" is not using koni shocks, then you are correct. If you mean not using Rayburn geometry, Rayburns jig in Whiteland to build the car, etc, you are wrong.

I’ll be sure to wish him luck and wave when he drives by the track I’m at.

My buddy the UMP mod guy told me that if he was me, he’d buy a brand new swingarm Rayburn. I laughed at him. But he swore he was serious. I have seen Rusty drive this car, it’s fast vs local level competition. So maybe there’s something there. Or maybe Rusty is just a beast.

Rusty took Rayburn back to a good place and his stats show that they just didn't have the numbers in cars...on a local level at Rusty's home track he sold several Rayburns with different drivers all were running up front winning races. He is a true driver old school as they come and like Rayburn has a great mind and not afraid to do something nobody else is willing to do.

We had a car very similar to Rustys car. It was pretty fast. Had I replaced more konis than just the rf, we probably could have won more than the 2 races we did. This was in 14' and 15'. We made the 14' Hillbilly 50 at i77 with it after missing hotlaps and qualifying cause we showed up so late. People were amazed.

I probably should have said, I know Rusty is a beast. You don’t win 200 races against anybody unless you’re really good. I know that all that really counts these days are $5000 and up wins though. At least in some circles. I don’t think any chassis or shock package or motor is a magic bullet. It’s a total package. I am NOT saying they’re all the same, but I also don’t think buying a pair of air jordans will make me an NBA player. Call me crazy.

WisWildManFan I like Rusty and hope he wins lots of big races, but that was pretty funny.

Where did Rusty finish last night?

[grt74]

there is no more drive than a pull bar (fact), todays shocks and tech are light years better (fact) and springs are better and lighter too, the rear of that car as far as shocks moved alot slower than 4 bar cars, now that we know how to build shocks and change the 1/2 inch and 1 inch numbers easier, i could see a swing arm being competitive, the problem with a swing arm car that most missed, BIG SPRING CHANGES,I MEAN BIG, and today with stacked stuff it would be alot easier to do
now I'm not saying a car built like an 02 can run out and set the world on fire but if the work was put in, i could see them being very competitive, alot of open wheels are on pull bars and hooking up those little tires
again just an opinion, it would take some work, and alot of testing but could work
z link is just the shocks/springs on the birdcage=more indexing like the 4 bar cars
congrats to rusty for being out there on his own getting it done

The best way to kill corner speed is to run a pullbar.

I built a 01 Rayburn for me years ago, 4 link LR and swing arm RR, with a pull bar. The car was way under powered 550 hp maybe, but I loved it. Sold it to a guy that run well with it considering the competition. I think a pull bar can work, but you would be out on your own.

My '78 vintage Jig a Low had a full tube strut chassis with a rear steer Ford box...no rack.

Looked the car over good last night swingarm left z link right pull bar bolt on rear clip nice car very fast got on high side was rolling!!!

Was quick time in his group second overall...led most of the feature sealed over the RR with 10 to go but what an impressive debut for the new Domination Chassis running with the 604 guys as he continues to make his new chassis faster.
