RUSH SPEC RACING

GRIDLIFE Rush SR is a wheel-to-wheel sprint racing series that utilizes the Rush SR from Rush Auto Works. This lightweight and high performance sports racer is designed to be a driver’s car from the ground up. The cars start at just over $39,000 and are raced as-is in a tightly controlled Spec form in this new national championship. The 10 round championship will be contested at five GRIDLIFE events in 2024.


TYPICAL EVENT FORMAT

Four sprint races

A typical event includes two practice sessions on Friday followed by qualifying, a half points Heat Race and a Final for the day. Saturday brings a reset with a completely new round.

Saturday will include a warmup session, its own qualifying followed by a half points Heat Race and a second Final. Each day will have its own Podium Celebration once the Final is over on Saturday, as typical at GridLife events the party is just getting started!
