A few more ridiculous questions from a newbie

[hpmaster]

Is a Rayburn like a Rocket, pretty much but do not worry about that get a list of Rayburn parts you need to get the chassis up on wheels and start talking to racers in your area. Swap meets and even 4M can get you most parts. I am sure most of what you need is laying in the corner of some guys garage that you can buy for little. Don't worry about updating a 10 year old chassis, if you want a better chassis go get a newer one.

Some of the most fun I've had in racing has come in cars that were a hodge-podge of parts. I've only bought a few rollers in my time, but I always take them completely apart anyway...to familiarize myself with everything as best as possible, but more so to make sure it's how I want it to be. Even things as simple as wanting a bolt to go "this" way as opposed to "that" way. And as others have mentioned and I believe, a 10" control arm is a 10" control arm. You can buy a $20 used one (as long as the shaft isn't bent) or spend $120 on a fancy one with heim ends. If your goal is to just get out there and learn how things work, I'd go the route of finding parts for what you have. Less chance of inheriting somebody elses problems that way. Good luck either way!

Tom Filkins in West Frankfort Il deals in a lot of used rayburn parts. He usually has anything from parts to rollers at decent prices. Also a good guy to deal with not a scammer. He usually has stuff listed on 4m but cant remember his screen name. Look him up on facebook under Lisa N Tom Filkins. Good luck!

Call Rayburn. He usually has tons of used parts laying around. He can also put you on track with what parts fit his car best. If you can see past all his b/s; but hey, that's CJ! Lol. I'd keep it on swing arm as well.
