I might have to change my name to quick draw....with the keys anyway. Please excuse the camera work, that's the wife using my phone to shoot the video combined with my underdeveloped editing skills.

The video does not do the sound of the car justice, it sounded sick! The other thing I was trying to pay attention to was the NVH level in the car which was definately a step up/not as refined or smooth as a GT. I don't know exactly what is responsible for it or how to describe it other than more vibrations coming up through the seats....felt mean. I guess it could have just been weird harmonics based on it being on the dyno, lol.
So now for the interesting part. The guy driving is a pro driver that is working with Ford on the Miller Motorsports Boss track experience. When the driver told me what the simulator said the car ran, I had to ask how accurate it is. Supposedly it is very accurate. Although he didn't give me an exact ET (said 12 seconds and I can't imagine that meant flat) he did say the trap speed...122MPH! Still don't think I believe him. I guess we'll know soon enough when the tests start coming out.
He also mentioned that most likely there will be other tracks that will host the Boss track experience and mentioned one in SoCal.
