Am having a bit of trouble getting the metal you mentioned. (Very small town)
Do you think that 1/8 " by 1" by 1" angle aluminum would work?

Definitaly NOT aluminum. The rails need to be as strong and stiff as possible. Weight is even an advantage if you hope to go fast.
You can order steel rod from McMaster-Carr Supply Co:
