The Ford Racing High Performance Driving School, based at Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele, Utah, has announced the 2012 Boss Track Attack program. The Boss Track Attack, a cooperative program between Ford Racing and the Ford Racing High Performance Driving School, allows owners of the new Mustang Boss 302 to attend a one-day driving school to learn the capabilities of their cars and sharpen their driving skills. This is an unprecedented program for Ford, and the initial sessions held in 2011 were enthusiastically received by Boss 302 owners, with the program being booked at 100% capacity.
“The Boss Track Attack has been a great addition to our curriculum at the Ford Racing High Performance Driving School,” said Dan McKeever, Director of Track Operations and Performance Schools at Miller Motorsports Park. “Ford Racing has been a great partner for us, and we were honored to have been chosen to host this program. It fits in perfectly with our existing schools, and we’re looking forward to continuing the program in 2012.”
“The Boss Track Attack has been a huge success with our customers,” said Mickey Matus, Marketing Manager, Ford Racing. “The Boss 302 was born and bred on the racetrack, and our friends at Miller Motorsports Park and the Ford High Performance Driving School have done an excellent job creating a program that perfectly showcases its performance capabilities. Our Boss 302 owners are having a great time learning about their cars and becoming better high-performance drivers, and we look forward to having many more happy participants in the program in 2012.”
The Boss Track Attack features a full Boss immersion, driving instruction and plenty of track time with racers and professional instructors.
The evening before the track day, owners will be treated to a welcome reception and dinner at the Larry H. Miller Total Performance Auto Museum. The evening will also feature a private tour of the museum, home to the late Larry Miller’s world-renowned collection of automobiles, artwork and memorabilia and the Boss 302 display.
The day begins with a dynamic classroom session featuring vehicle attributes, seating and hand position, cornering theory, breaking zones, vehicle dynamics, TracKey and other Boss 302-specific features. After building a solid foundation for car control, Boss® owners will practice cornering techniques, braking with downshifting, and vehicle dynamics. After a fully-catered lunch there is more seat time, including lead-and-follow exercises and track sessions with instructor ride-alongs. The day will finish up with a passenger ride with one of our professional instructors. All Boss Track Attack graduates will receive an exclusive Boss Track Attack graduation pack.
“Everything about the event, from the moment we walked into Miller Motorsports Park until the time we left after our graduation, was first-class,” said recent Boss Track Attack participant Rick Duffy. “Everyone there went out of their way to make us feel special and welcome everywhere we went. You would have thought I just spent a half-million dollars. Everyone involved in the program should be commended for creating a perfect event.”
