Other Places to Race

The Rush SR is built for wheel-to-wheel racing. Whether you’re competing in the GridLife RUSH National Championship or exploring other series, here’s where you can race your Rush SR.

Race Where You Want

The Rush SR is eligible for multiple racing series across North America.

While the GridLife RUSH National Championship is our flagship series, the Rush SR is designed as a versatile platform that fits into multiple sanctioning bodies. Below are the primary organizations where Rush SR drivers compete, along with the essential information you need to get started.

Each organization has its own licensing requirements, membership structure, and race calendar. We’ve compiled the key links and information to help you navigate getting on track with any of these series.

XSR — Xtreme Spec Racing

Xtreme Spec Racing is a Rush SR race organization dedicated to drivers competing on the West Coast of the United States. The series exists to give Rush SR owners a professionally structured, competitive, and enjoyable racing organization tailored to the western racing community.

XSR operates with direct support from Rush of California, Podium Club, and Rush Auto Works — ensuring strong technical backing, parts availability, and alignment with official Rush standards. The series offers contingency awards redeemable for Rush parts.

How to enter: Drivers must hold a competition license with an accredited organization, then apply for an XSR racing license. Once XSR issues your race number and validates your credentials, register for events through the hosting organization.

NASA — National Auto Sport Association

NASA is one of the largest grassroots motorsports organizations in North America. The Rush SR competes in NASA ST2 for wheel-to-wheel racing, as well as Time Trial (TT) and HPDE. Local and regional participation is growing monthly — over 150 NASA-sanctioned events across the US are available.

Vehicle Requirements: NASA requires the 6-gallon behind-the-seat fuel tank and Trident roll bar for the Rush SR.

Race Formats: ST2 wheel-to-wheel racing, Time Trial (TT), and High Performance Driving Events (HPDE). Check with your regional NASA chapter for the latest on Rush SR participation in your area.

SCCA — Sports Car Club of America

The SCCA is America’s oldest and most established motorsports organization, with a rich history dating back to 1944. The Rush SR is eligible for SCCA Club Racing as a Local Option class and can participate in SCCA Track Night in America events.

Vehicle Requirements: SCCA requires the 6-gallon behind-the-seat fuel tank and Trident roll bar for the Rush SR.

Race Formats: Club Racing (wheel-to-wheel), Time Trials, Track Night in America, and autocross. Contact your local SCCA region to confirm Rush SR class eligibility for wheel-to-wheel racing.

SVRA — Sportscar Vintage Racing Association

SVRA is North America’s largest vintage racing organization, hosting events at premier circuits across the country. While SVRA primarily focuses on historic and vintage race cars, they run a Modern Sportscar Invitational program that welcomes newer spec cars like the Rush SR at select events.

Race Formats: SVRA events combine vintage racing with modern sportscar groups. The Rush SR may be eligible for the Modern Sportscar Invitational at certain events — check directly with SVRA for current eligibility and event-specific invitations.

What You’ll Need

Basic requirements to race with any sanctioning body.

Regardless of which organization you race with, you’ll need the following:

Safety Gear: FIA/SFI-rated helmet (SA2020 or newer recommended), FIA 8856-2018 or SFI 3.2A/5 rated driving suit, FIA 8856-2018 rated gloves and shoes, and HANS or FHR device (required by most sanctioning bodies).

Licensing: Most organizations require completion of a competition licensing school or a progression through HPDE/time trial programs. Some accept competition licenses from other sanctioning bodies with proper documentation.

Medical: Many series require a current physical examination form signed by a licensed physician. Check with your chosen organization for specific requirements.
