RUSH SR Test Drive| The $40000 GT 4 Killer

A couple of weeks ago I had the opportunity to drive the Rush SR around the Mexico City Formula 1 track and I was seriously impressed with the performance and the fun that the little car provided.

At a price tag of only $40,000 the Rush SR comes with a very impressive spec sheet.

0-60 mph - 3.3 seconds
154 mph top speed
145 HP on the wheels
935 lbs dry weight

The car is designed to provide a high performance race car that is affordable to buy and most importantly affordable to maintain. The Rush SR produces a power-to-weight ratio of 375 Hp/MT which is similar to a GT 3 Cup car. With almost 400 pounds of downforce produced by the SR's rear spoiler and diffuser it is a really fun race car to get around the track.

If you are looking for an affordable race car that is reliable and a ton of fun you don't have to look much further than the Rush. More and more racing series in the US and now in Mexico are offering a great place to compete in these cars and gain experience on a budget that won't break the bank.
