I have had good luck with RZ-50 dry film lubricant on hinge pins and captured rod ends on my 4wd short course truck. It's like $7 at any Home Depot.

On Edit, re TQ raceway:

I don't like being indoors very much, but I despise racing indoors. But that has something to do with me not liking being indoors. There are other problems with racing indoors that involve the "local clique", but with that said....

I love racing at Sean's TQ raceway. We used to race carpet oval there when the Southwest Tour ran, so when I got a chance to attend the TCS race there I jumped on it. I always pit on the south side near the rollup door so it's almost like being outdoors. When we went down to test for the TCS race, we didn't know hardly anyone and one of the guys with us remarked "this is the nicest, friendliest, most helpful group I've ever seen". And all the fast guys were there!

Before TQ opened I lived up the street at Peyton and Chino Hills Parkway. Had Sean been open, it's possible I'd of never left.
