What kind of parts are good to keep around? I was thinking about rallycrossing a car with some friends.

Also, my friend has some spare parts that he was going to get rid of, what's worth keeping out of:
-rear subframe
-rear lateral links
-pair of rear knuckles (disk brake)
-pair of rear knuckles (drum brake)

I also have boxes of odds and ends in my garage, I'm not going to list those contents for you, but I will say I like to keep a spare set of head and tail light, as well as must engine parts.

What else is good to have extras of? My friend may be parting out a car soon too.

Alternators, vacuum lines, hose clamps, rags, and probably endlinks.

Take the whole car, that's what I'd do.

Knock sensors
fuel filler necks

Wish I had the room to have spare cars in entirety around, they're so cheap on Craig's List. :razz: All good idea, also my friend's got spare axles which is good.

If you're rallycrossing, then suspension stuff.

Jake you're too kind, I'll let you give them to someone in need. :wink:

What do you think's commonly broken? Should I keep those lateral links my friend was going to throw out?

I've never broken anything rallycrossing. It wouldn't hurt to have spare wheels and tires though if you run over something.
