It was a good 5 days. Started with 2 days on the Patriot course with Kaizen Autosport to brush up on race craft skills. Highly recommend Kaizen. Car was immediately quick (50sec laps with more to get after) on Patriot, a short course well suited to the Rush. I was down for a bit with a TPS failure, but thanks to Bruce (and shout out to Rush owner John), I was back up and running to explore the pace on VIR. First time at VIR full course so not quite using all the track yet. Still, got enough pace to see the magic of the uphill esses and south bend. Carolinas PCA was extremely helpful and welcoming. Hope to be back next year. Thank you Bruce for all your support... pretty amazing.

For all you gamers who haven't seen this yet:

Hi Bruce, thanks for the welcome. I was talking to Cale a couple of weeks ago and he mentioned you were in NH. We had just got home from Billerica MA the day before.
I checked out your track today and it looks amazing! You are about 7 hrs from me, but I’d love to come down and spend a couple of days there if possible.
I was a big Ducati fan and raced at Loudon, back when it was Bryar Motorsport Park, so I might have been at your shop as well! I raced at Mosport and Shubie in the 80’s and 90’s, so our paths may very well have crossed.

Gene,

Thanks for starting this. For the group, Gene and friends bought ours together, mine is chassis 141. Couple more in the area are expecting theirs shortly.

The car is laugh-out-loud fun, a great learning platform, and comes with the exceptional support from Bruce. He and Susie have made the process so easy. Bruce has a unique trait that he combines patience (acquainting us to its operation and care) along with a get it done approach... and personally is just such a delight to be around.

This car also will take about $15K of running costs out of tracking my GT3 (would be a ton more if I track day insured it). I know, I made the cardinal mistake of tallying track day costs.

Shout out to Matt Romanowski and the AiM team for all the help getting me up to speed on the Dash Logger and SC.

Also special mention to Jim, Mike and the team at Club Motorsport to offer such a wonderful venue to begin and enjoy this journey

Looking forward to a Kaizen Autosport 2 day event and then the 3 days with Carolinas PCA at VIR week after next.

Update: Installed 14-46 sprockets for Ossipee Mtn hillclimb event. Ran reversed course at Club Motorsports with a slalom at the high point. Driver was Mike Ruggiero. Launch was awesome and pulled great. Finished 3rd out of 32. Beat by a GT2RS and a GT3RS both with launch control.

Thats a great rig!

A few notes from our searches:

1. The Lift of Choice Seems to be Stinger Trailer Lifts
2. The Lower Deck will need to be 35' Long to comfortably fit 3 cars without removing the clams.
3. The Interior Height needs to be 8' to allow clearance
4. We easily fill the nose of our trailer with Tools, VP Cans and Gear and No Tires or Wheels. Having (2) cars up and one down would allow for more room.
5. Our 44' Steel Trailer with (3) Rush Cars, Tools, Spares, (3) Spare Sets of Wheels and Tires, (4) Sets of Tires.... and a 3500 Ram weighs 26,000 on the nose. With GT cars we are nearly 30,000#.

We will be based in columbus, OH for the 24 season.

Hey Tim, I was the one with the bike parked behind you at calabogie that day. Just wondering how you like the rush so far and how you did lap time wise at calabogie?

Click to expand...

I love It! Have done 7 races to date. Easy car to maintain. Runs 2:17 on the long track and 1:17 on the stadium track. Not quite as fast as the Radicals, but just as fun!

Yeah, I found it last night. Rules are very simple, and I don't think that's a bad thing.

You can't change springs, but you can tune shocks and differentials, which is interesting.

Shock and diff tuning is sometimes black magic and beyond the scope of most gear heads even.

I change springs on my full bodied E46 M3 endurance car, but have never tried to revalve the struts....

But the Rush seems a great platform to learn that.

I'm definitely interested in spec racing this thing, but I also want to dominate my local hill climbs.... And that's going to require me to take the car in and out of 'spec' based on what I'm doing that weekend.

My first sports/track car was a lotus elise. Dream car at the time (2007) was a 211.

Now, the 211 was a great car. Much better-balanced than the 311. And, it had a similar look:

Can anyone attach/post the standard Rush Dyno reports people are using? Many thanks.

Click to expand...

there isn't one. you have to dyno your car.

Give the guys at Rush a call. They painted it and have the exact color name.

Plugs directly into your rush to adapt to most maintainer chargers. 10awg wire this adapter can handle some power. Price is $30 plus shipping.

Email me at kartracermike2@gmail.com

This car has been sold. Pls delete thread.

Will you be running at sebring? What groups do you usually run with?

Click to expand...

Hi John,
I have been with Mark and Chin there many times and have been with Track Guys there but it’s been years since they have had an event in FL.
I will be running Sebring, but won’t be able to commit to an event till Fall, November-December. A few friends are
Planning on meeting up there with Chin in November and that will be the earliest I will be able to attend.
Looks like the build will be up for us in July and then I am working in NY and will have to run down to pick up the car and of course going to do our first day of break in at HSR.
I am in group 3 in NASA as well and will hopefully advance to group 4 early next year and then the race license. I have done some time trials in the Shelby’s but as I stated this will be our first race car so all the input and knowledge is invaluable. Thank you!

@bhargrave - I can confirm that the wait is almost over! I saw your little beauty almost done just a week ago.

One of my toys....
