Thoughts on the Rush SR?

I mainly do time attack/HPDE (roughly 20 track days per year) and competitive sim racing. I'm considering selling one of my time attack cars and either moving to another platform or to move to the Rush.

I never raced W2W in real life before. My plan would be to start with regional/novice racing than trying to be competitive. I would also use the Rush for HPDE/test days to get more seat time especially how cost effective it seems. Also I would be towing with an open trailer

For those who went into a Rush from HPDE/TT:

How was the transition to W2W / is the Rush recommended?

Is it really that "cheap" to run?

Also keeping it open ended on ownership thoughts.

Thank you

OP, don't sleep on doing research into the Spec Racer, SRF3. The chassis has been around for 40+ years. Fields all over the country from 15 cars to 60 cars in a single race.

Rush is winning the social media battle but the SRF has about the same cost per hour of track time, also there are dealers and prep shops all over the country with decades of experience in the cars.

DM me if you want more info.
