Todd Rush

#71

Todd Rush drives the #71 Hornet Class car.  His home track is Macon Speedway.  He lives in Pawnee, IL.

Team members helping Todd are:  Walt Gudgel Sr. - garage to build car, Sean Donahue, Kyle McIntire, Linda Gudgel - paint, Missy McIntire - paint, Marlene Gudgel - paint.  Walt Gudgel Jr. is the car owner.

Todd started racing in 2006 in the Hornet Class at Macon Speedway because a friend built a car and told Todd he had to race it.

The thrill of racing for Todd is being able to go fast and rub paint with other cars.  His most exciting racing moment is making it 6 races without hitting the wall.  He's most proud of having the same car since the beginning of his career. 

Todd's racing hero is Dale Jarrett.

Of racing, Todd says, "Build a car and come out to Macon, it's a blast!".
