It was easy and they just needed my VIN.

hmm, I'll bet no more than 10% have exercised their day. Which means a used car VIN will let me participate?

Hey don't know but it would be worth a call for me

They also asked what dealership it was purchased from, and when you took delivery

Yea it is only good for 1 year after initial delivery. If you have the Carfax for it, should have the original dealership on there if it within a year of the initial delivery.

I believe it is original owner only.

 

[Dharri21]

It is only the original buyer when purchased. Even buying on MSO from another person will not qualify.

It is only the original buyer when purchased.

These are all correct answers.

Source: I Bought a 2022 F150 Raptor with 2,000 miles as a dealer demo and cannot go to Raptor Assault even though I am the "real" first owner and was well within the first-year timeframe. Same deal with all FP schools. Sucks cuz nobody went on my Raptor VIN and I cannot go separately without a new purchase.

First of all, I know this topic has probably been covered multiple times, but it was such a cool experience that I just had to do another thread as I attended Mach 1 track attack today. Such an awesome day at the Ford performance school. If anybody can still go and is on the fence, I highly recommend that you pull the trigger and do this event as it was amazing. My only regret is I didn't opt for a period that had a second day.

Awesome. Few things:

1. That photo doesn't pick up how stunning Grabber Yellow is.
2. The class is absolutely awesome.
3. The Video with Camera inside and out captures the memory.
4. I loved it so much I made it my photo for this site. (almost passed the instructor, hahaha, well tried to stay tight but safe distance).
5. The dinner the night before was 1st class.
6. Didn't take the instructor ride at the end as I would have puk'd but everyone says that's the best.
7. You know why they take you on the ride at the end and not the beginning? Because (7) cars would crash each class, from people thinking they can do what the instructor just did! Not kidding.

Great post, I always said, I wish I could have taken 10 of my closest friends to the class with me.

That's a fact haha. Our group was talking about it at the end. We felt like we were pushing pretty hard on the third run and then the instructor ride-along made us feel like grandmas.

Did Mach 1 Track attack on June 21, drove down from Toronto, took in The Tail of the Dragon on the way, great roads through The Smoky Mountains.
If you are on the fence, believe me, do it, great fun and you will learn a lot about the car and driving it. I guess I was one of the quicker drivers on the track, got to go alone, just me in my car and the instructor in his car while the others pulled over to let us pass. Great day even though it rained throughout, highly recommend It.

Just be careful. Get the insurance. I can tell you a story about their walls.

Surely they are "safer" barriers.

 

[kellyreno]

You are wearing a Hans device. No the wall was not safer.

When you're on the oval it's straight up walls. Nobody wrecked or rubbed in our whole class but the instructors said it happens. I would think the most likely cause would be following and not breaking hard enough going into a curve coming off one of the straight aways.
