Ford is serious about the performance of the new Mustang Boss 302, and they want the new owners to be able to get the most out of their cars.

So much so that Ford is now offering a full track day experience to those who have bought the track ready Boss 302. Called the 'Boss Immersion' track experience, this program has been put together by Team Mustang and Ford Racing. The events will take place at Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele, Utah.

While you will need to cover your travel and hotel stay in Utah, Ford will pay for the track time and will even bring their own cars. The day before your track time, an evening reception will be held to get everyone acquainted with each other and learn more about the technical details of this normally-aspirated, 5.0-liter, V8 monster, which produces 440-hp.

Jamie Allison, the director of Ford Racing said, "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."

So if you weren't decided about buying the new Mustang Boss 302, maybe this added track benefit will help make your decision a lot easier.

Ford is late to the party. Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep SRT owners have had this benefit for years. An added convenience is that the SRT driving event is held at different tracks around the country, making it easier for owners to get participate.

Before the GT500 I had a Jeep SRT8. The SRT Track Day was an awesome part of the ownership experience...

For the money they're getting for these things, the buyers should get ownership in the track.

I hope the track time is terrific, I saw one at the Philly Auto Show and was not impressed by the looks, Orange with Black wheels and White hood. Oh well like I said hopefully it shines on the track, like it was built to do.

I was thinking the same exact thing. I had an SRT8 Charger & the track experience was at Lime Rock, CT, just about 2 hrs away. Ford needs to spread the event around. It's unrealistic to think that most 302 Boss buyers will add travel expenses to the cost of the car to get something for "free".
