RuSPORT was anauto racing team that competed in theChamp Car World Series. It was founded in September 2002 byCarl Russo.

Russo drove for the team then known as Performance Development and Racing (PDR) based in Fort Collins, Colorado (USA) which was owned by Steve Wulff. Russo competed in theToyota Atlantic Series driving a car prepared by PDR in the 2002 season before he decided that team ownership suited him better than being a driver. Russo acquired the assets of PDR from Wulff in late 2002, which gave rise to RuSPORT. Wulff stayed on Operations Director and Gerald Tyler was appointed as Technical Director.Jeremy Dale, a longtime associate of Russo's, was brought on as President of the new operation.

RuSPORT competed in the 2003 Toyota Atlantic Championship Series with driversAaron Justus andA. J. Allmendinger. Allmendinger won the championship with seven victories from 11 starts.

RuSPORT and Allmendinger moved toChamp Car in 2004 along with a second car driven byMichel Jourdain Jr. The team quickly grew from a small Atlantic Series team to a two-car Champ Car team with more than 40 employees. The rookie team placed Jourdain and Allmendinger in the top-five numerous time en route to Allmendinger winning Rookie-of-the-Year honors. This was only the second time in the history of the Champ Car Series that a rookie team with a rookie driver accomplished the feat.

In 2005,Justin Wilson was signed as a replacement for 2005 for Jourdain, leading the team to their first wins. Wilson scored two victories (Toronto and Mexico City) and finished third in the championship. Allmendinger came close to victory, with four runner-up finishes during the season. For 2006 they were expected to be challengers toNewman/Haas Racing. Mid-way through the season & after 3 straight top 10 finishes, the team surprisingly replaced Allmendinger with 2002 CART championCristiano da Matta who moved over fromDale Coyne Racing. Allmendinger would win the next 3 races in a row for his new team.Cristiano da Matta was injured in a freak collision with a deer during testing atRoad America on August 3, 2006.

On September 17, 2006, the team announced that it had selected AustralianRyan Briscoe, to fill in for the final two races of the 2006 season, Surfers Paradise, Australia and Mexico City.

At the conclusion of the 2006 season, Russo's time and energy were being increasingly directed toward his rapidly growing company,Calix, and he was forced to leave behind the team he created and the sport he loved. In November 2006PKV Racing co-ownerDan Pettit purchased the team from Russo.

On January 22, 2007, RuSPORT confirmed the return of Justin Wilson and title sponsor,CDW. They reportedly signed Wilson to a multi-year contract.^[1] RuSPORT also formed a technical alliance with theRocketsports team, and the team was dubbedRSPORTS. Wilson won at Assen and scored solidly enough to finish second overall, while Tagliani struggled and finished outside the series top 10. The alliance was however dissolved before the end of the 2007 season. The RuSPORT team dissolved as of December 31, 2007^[2] and Pettit merged his team ownership withForsythe Championship Racing.^[3] Forsythe would ultimately fold its team when ChampCar merged into theIndy Racing League for 2008.
