I believe the RUSH Karting Series can achieve the very same success in a very short period of time and weвЂ™re really excited to be able to offer the RUSH program to karting enthusiast across the country.вЂќ RUSH has successfully addressed all of these elements for many years in our big car programs resulting in strong weekly car counts and exciting wheel-to-wheel racing at our sanctioned speedways. вЂњThe main points of discussion ranged from the expense and other more serious concerns associated with tire treating and fuel additives, as well as a desire to have a proven sealed engine program. вЂњOver the past few years weвЂ™ve been approached by several people in various capacities of karting about the possibility of getting involved in kart racing,вЂќ acknowledged Emig.
