My Boss Track Attack Experience (PIC HEAVY)

[xAeons]

Hey guys! This week my Boss Track Attack class finally happened, after waiting months for it. Yes I do not own a Boss 302 anymore.... but i still bought it new!

I'm from New York and flew out to Utah to Miller Motorsports park for this event. The place is AMAZING. The museum is beautiful and contains about $50 million in cars, and the most privately owned Cobras on the planet.

The track day was amazing, the whole team was professional and friendly and when they took us for laps in the cars, I was shocked at how good of drivers they were. They gave me a Black/Red Boss 302 Laguna Seca (#3 car). The cars have upgraded tires, brakes, roll cage, 6 point harnesses and the TracKey of course.

I have zero complaints about this class and I think everyone should check out the Ford Racing School!

Only thing I have to mention is how crappy the MT-82 is. My car had around 11k miles on it and as soon as I got into it, it would grind third gear... no problem, ill just baby it into it. Eventually it took a lot of work to get the car into third and when the instructor drove the car, the tranny would not come out of third. You can move the shifter but the car was always in third gear lol. It lasted the entire day so I wasn't upset at all.

Some cell phone pics and then some better pics taken but the photographer at the park. (They have us a flash drive with about 600 pictures on it.) I did not get any pictures of the skid car sorry.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask!

The view!!







Both of these cars are brand new, never driven. Also there was a GT500 KR in the same condition.













$15 MILLION DAYTONA!





MY name on the car. Love the attention to detail!

2006 GT that they use for the actual ford racing driving school. They have exhaust, bigger brakes and suspension mods I think. Tires as well. Oh and of course sparco seats, roll cage and a 6 point harness.

I'm so looking forward to this

When are you going?

IIRC those were the FR500C's that used to race in the Miller Motorsports Mustang Challenge.

They use the regular GTs for the one day school and they use the FR500Cs for the more advanced courses.

That's awesome! Wish I could have gone, but alas, I am a second owner.

Shit, my mistake

Same here, Ford's Media department was the first owner from what I was told and now I'm the second owner.

Awesome pics man. That looks like it was a blast!

So how does that Boss Track Attack experience work, anyway? It's only available to folks who buy the Boss new direct from Ford, right? Do you pay extra for the track Attack deal, or is it something Ford includes in the price?

You can only drive a Boss if you bought a Boss 302 brand new. It is included in the price of the car and typically the salesmen probably wont tell you. But after a couple months Ford send you a Boss Owners Package with all the information about it. (Check my other thread for pics of the owner's pack).

The school is included but you have to pay for travel expenses and hotel expense.

They do offer the SAME exact program for anyone who wants to do it, but they give you a race prepped Mustang GT (pictured above.) I brought a guest with me and he paid $1,500 (i think that is the price) to do the school in the Mustang GT. He did the same exact things as me but in a different car. Still TOTALLY worth it.

They give you a certificate of completion and you can use it as credentials if you wish to go to more advanced racing schools because you actually go through the exact ford racing school program.

Did you by chance get the sweet racing gloves when you went? My owners kit still has the voucher for free gloves, but of course it doesnt mean anything for me. And if so...you wanna sell em?

Haha yes I did! They actually gave them to everyone (even the non boss owners) and they didnt even ask for the voucher.

They also gave them to you at the end of the day.... I dont know why they wouldnt give them to us in the beginning so we could use them. Oh well.

And no thank you, I plan on using them =D
