DEARBORN, Mich., Nov. 11, 2010 Buyers of Ford's highly
anticipated Mustang Boss 302 will now get a hands-on track driving
experience to learn just what their car is capable of as part of a new
complimentary program being announced today.
The Mustang Boss 302 is a very special vehicle, tuned to perform
on a racetrack, said Mickey Matus, marketing manager, Ford Racing. It's an absolute blast to drive on the street but we want owners to be
able to experience all the incredible balance, power and performance
engineered into this machine, and the only safe way to do that is to
push the car to the limit on a closed course. This is only natural,
since the Boss grew up on the racetrack.
The Boss Track Attack program, offered through Team Mustang and
Ford Racing, will feature a full Boss immersion, driving instruction and
plenty of track time with engineers and racers. The experience is
designed to give Boss owners a comprehensive, hands-on look at exactly
what their cars are capable of and just how much fun they can be.
Boss Track Attack will take place at Miller Motorsports Park in
Tooele, Utah, outside of Salt Lake City. Boss owners will need to make
their own travel and lodging arrangements, but once in Utah, the full
track experience including cars for the event is courtesy of Ford.
The evening before the track day, owners will be treated to a
welcome reception followed by an in-depth immersion into both the
non-product and product stories of the Boss 302, focusing on how the
program came to be and the underlying engineering and design philosophy.
The next morning, participants will convene at the track for a full day
of driving instruction and course time.
Practice makes perfect, and in this case it's going to be a ton of
fun, too, said Jamie Allison, director, Ford Racing. There's nothing
like the experience of being behind the wheel of a high-performance car
on a dedicated track. It's the environment that breeds incredible
machines like Mustang Boss, and for owners who want to experience all
these cars are capable of, we can promise an unforgettable event.
More details about Track Attack, including dates, will be available in early 2011.
