plenty of threads on here, or RDC.

boring, and won't feel like much at all, but if you don't have many or any friends in this time and money consuming sport that we all still love for some fucking reason.............. then reading forums and threads is the only way you are going to get knowledge absorbed.
and do not be afraid of asking questions. ASK ALL THE FUCKING QUESTIONS.

AND WHEN YOU THINK YOU'VE READ A FAIR AMOUNT, OR EVEN A LOT,
READ
MOOOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRRRR.

Lemme see if I can find a quick example


Just start out with an AutoFab kit.
