Re: Track Attack !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I did the Hampton in Tooele for the 16 to the 18, it was cheaper. I couldn't get a flight out till the 19th so I figure I will stay by the airport that night.

Nope...going skiing after Track Attack...weather pending, that is.
Spring skiing at Alta and Snowbird can be excellent. Just be on the slopes when the lifts open in the morning.

How long after buying a Boss does one get invited for this? I'd love to do this somewhere during this summer!
You don't get "invited". You have to sign up on your own. goto http://bosstrackattack.com/. you'll need your VIN, date of delivery and dealership you purchased from.
 
Re: Track Attack !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow almost everything is full.... I wonder what that means for everyone who's still going to buy a Boss throughout the rest of the year?
 
Re: Track Attack !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you'll end up getting spots that they open up next year. If you see something open jump on it quick. I had 9 people in my group, so spots fill up quickly.
 
Re: Track Attack !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just attended the one day Boss Track Attack on April 11 at Miller Motorsport Complex. I have no prior tack experience so this was very helpful for me. The cars were prepared with our name on the lower right corner on the windshield. They try to give you a Boss that is the same color as your own car. We had 11 students in our session and they divided us up into two groups. We had ideal temperatures for the day between 60 and about 70 degrees. You have to wear a red racing fire suit so getting a cool day helps. All of the cars have Boss 302S front grilles that have the wire mesh over the fog light opening instead of the blocked off fog light covers. All of the cars have the ford racing brake cooling kit too. I forgot to check for the transmission cooler but I believe the cars have this too.

I will continue with a few more post of what we covered.

Welcome to BMO. The cars also have LS spoilers and splitters with different front calipers and pads.

Wow when I attended the second week of the program there were only six participants. Joe Foster, Gunner Jeanette, Charlie Putman and Byron were the instructors. It was a blast.
