right off sorry I write like crap! 

About 5 years ago when my wife and I were looking into starting a track day rental car business using mostly sports racers as or cars we look at the Radical sr1's but they are very far and few in the states. there is pretty much only one dealer in the states that has them the other dealers said they can order us a few if we want but after some thought we decided going with the SR1 would be the best idea. We ended up going with the Rush SR's and I will say that was a mistake for a number of reason.

part of the 5 years we have owned the Rush car we were a dealer for a short part of that time and that too was a big mistake for a number of reasons. 

the Rush SR do sell very well and the Rush spec series is taking off with 30 to 50 cars running at event's. Radical has the sr1 series in the UK but nothing in the states. this has always made me question why?? the SR1's are about the same cost as a rush car they are a far better car. there are SR3 owners selling there cars and buying Rush SR's to run a the spec series because of the lower running cost and lower cost of the Rush cars. the SR1's are a perfect car for a feeder series to more powerful SR3's and other sports racing classes. If you also take into consideration of people with brand loyalty that start out in a SR1 they may also want to move up to the SR3 series ? so the question is why hasn't Radical or the Radical dealer in the states offering anything like Rush does?
