Rush SR Chassis Number
303
Ok Rush fanatics...I'm on order for chassis #303, anxiously awaiting the fuel tank solve and wanted to use the time I have prepping my garage and trailer versus pouting about the delay in getting the car. The question is simple, for all of you that already have the car and have raced it, what are the essential and nice to have tools and equipment that I'll need once the car arrives. I'm coming from Spec Miata so I have the basics (jack stands, tool sets etc.) but would like to ensure that I have the right stuff for when the car arrives.

Let me have it! Thanks so much!
 
For Tools... GOOD Hex keys (I'm partial to Proto Advanced Hex, as they don't roll like regular hex keys and some of the hex used on the Rush are nearly at their torque limits), Torque wrench, chain break tool, Nitrogen tank for shocks (or air pump), Chain lube & Cleaner, Loctite (red and blue), all other normal fluids, small jack (makes it super easy to lube chain), plus all of the "regular" stuff

For Spares... I have a ton of stuff. Bolts/Nuts, full body panels, shocks, tires (Wet & dry), chain, oil pressure sensor, throttle and clutch cable (mine is drive by cable), brake pads, rotors (not really needed), half shafts. Some racers have spare A-Arms, and uprights.

I'm sure I'm forgetting stuff, but this is a start.
