There shouldnt be any issues surely? all 11speed campag cable is same cable pull, this is effectively an athena groupset from what i know so nothing should have changed on that front

For the chain:
Probably you can get a Record chain for approx the same price as Potenza chain.

I'd start by asking which Potenza cassette and what year Record RD?
There's sometimes a buggy.
How many drivers does a buggy have?

One.

So let's just say I'm drivin' this buggy...
and if you fix your attitude you can ride along with me.

My guess would be that OP wants 11-32 which a lot of people believe is good for CX. If that hunch is true then OP needs to make sure he has a medium cage derailleur specced for 32 max sprocket as otherwise the derailleur won't work well. I would also advice against 11-32 for CX racing as 36:32 is just too low of a gear. You will stand still, and people will run past you.

There is a lack of information what the TS wants exactly.
Important is:
What Cassette?
Which year is the Record 11 speed rear derailleur?
