Hill Climbing Chassis 90

[Meyers Performance Bruce]

Watch this thread as we explore hill climbing with our demo #90. Taking it to the Ascutney NEHA event on May 21 for preliminary tech inspection in order to make any required safety mods. Our goal is to run in the Mount Washington event. Post up if you have done a hill climb with your Rush.

Mike Schneider, with Fresno Powersports, our Dealer out in California has done a hill climb with the car. It did very well. The car is not setup for impressive standing starts so take that into account. Be ready to burn through clutches!

Just curious to learn how your bill climb experience worked in the Rush?

Thanks for prompting us to update this thread. We were informed that the Rush would not be eligible for the May event due to requiring a new entry technical/safety inspection. So we have setup an inspection appt for in June. Note our #90 is a ride-by-wire chassis so we are working on the mapping in the meantime. At our home Club Motorsports (Tamworth NH), drivers continue to get the Rush experience.

We have run the RUSH at the Knox Mountain Hill climb for the past 2 years. The start is the challenge, but overall we have done very well and the car always gets lots of attention!

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.
