It is a bit tricky to get off. I used what I call a python wrench (plastic handle with a rubber cinch strap). Was slow going as not much room to get more than a fraction of a turn at a time. Replaced original filter with bolt head one and my life got a lot easier. Cover your exhaust with something impermeable (I wrap tinfoil around the section) otherwise some oil will drip onto the heat wrap . Will smoke for 20 minutes when you start the car.

I keep coming back to this thread for advice so I'll ask here:

What tool do I need to remove the OEM oil filter on the engine? I was expecting one with a bolt head but it's just a good old fashioned oil filter.

Thanks in advance!

First time drive a big screw driver through the cartrige, the factory glues them on and it is super hard.

After the first it should be able to be done by hand or a small filter wrench.

Full containment seats

J
Hey everyone, just starting to put things together for the upcoming season and would like any advise/direction on a full containment seat for our car. I'd like to hear what anyone has to say about what brands might work better in the Rush SR. Has anyone utilized a full containment seat in their Rush SR? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Looking forward to the 2026 season. Hope everyone had a great winter.

My car got on fire

Alex
Hey everyone,

As some of you may know, my car caught fire this past weekend at Podium Club. In order to avoid any speculation, I decided to share what happened and hopefully help others avoid making the same mistake I did.

After driving my car intensively for three years and putting over 150 hours on it—while still having a strong engine—I decided to send it to Late Entry Motorsport in Kansas for a full refresh. I had also requested that a spare engine I bought on eBay six months ago be installed.

Unfortunately, the engine was not in the condition the seller had listed, and my regret is not opening the box within the 30-day return window. When Scott Donaghue opened the box, he suspected the engine had been involved in an accident due to weld marks near the oil filter. Scott recommended that I wait for my original engine to be rebuilt and set the eBay engine aside. However, without giving much thought to the consequences, I went against his recommendation and decided to move forward. That poor decision caused the weld to crack and leak oil all over the track. Luckily, I managed to trigger the fire suppressor in time and save the car.

Despite being pretty upset about the situation, not only did Scott offer me his spare car for the rest of the day, but the team also told me they would install my rebuilt original engine and get the car ready for the next day. Scott and the entire team—I can’t thank you enough for what you did for me this weekend. Although I didn’t have the best day, you guys truly made my day, and I will never forget the service, support, hospitality, and friendship you showed me.

At midnight, even though I kept insisting that I should go home and that I didn’t need to drive the next day, the whole team stayed up until 2 a.m., committed to finishing the car. The least I could do to show my appreciation was stay with them until they were done.

I chose to send my car to Late Entry Motorsports for a full refresh because of the huge amount of knowledge, tips, recommendations, and professionalism Scott has shown me over the years. I’m so glad I made the right decision, as the car not only looked brand new but was better in every aspect.

Once again, this is why I love RUSH. Every race, the drivers and dealers make us feel like family. I was offered so much help from so many different people that I don’t think any other series compares.
