My Mach 1 Track Attack Experience @ Ford Performance School

[Muligan]

Went to the GT350 school out in Utah back in '18. Liked it so much, I bought the very same car when they sold them off at the end of the '21 season.

At Utah Motorsport Campus - Oct '18....

At Mosport - June '23.....

I signed up today for Oct 30-31 the last single day class and the only day the auto M1 was available. I also went to the ST suv experience in Asheville last year.

I'm 4 weeks away from the August 23/24th two day session in a Mach 1 M6 (I think those are the dates) 'm really looking forward to it. Nice review.

Very cool OP, Yellow #10 was the car I drove when I attended in April. Heck of an experience.

Black 16…. Had a great time even having previous Mach 1 track time. Grouping similar skill levels makes all the difference. I would love to go back for a full course.

Had to dig back through my files to find my pics from my Track Attack experience. This is one of my favorites.

Good 'ol Yellow #10 <3, she taught me a lot of things I will never do in my own car (no lift shift....i'm looking directly at you). LOL

I went several weeks ago and it was such an amazing experience. I've attending a few driver camps, and the FRP school was by far the most professional, useful and most importantly, FUN. I know I'm being iterative at this point, but I highly, highly recommend attending for anyone able. I feel so much more confident in my M1 now.

Edit: Also, I fell in love with Twister Orange. It is an incredible color. If you ain't #1, you're last.

4k(ish?) RPM clutch dump launches on the strip for me. That was so brutal. I felt terrible for poor #1.

LOL, you can even hear it in my video when I potato'ed the no lift shift...."****, i'm sorry car".

So they must take you through all of those features: launch control, no lift shift...do you also get to do a burn out with line lock?

 

[Nixtide]

Nope, I think they said the GT500 crowd got to do line lock, but we didn't in the Mach 1s

-Nix

I was in your track day with you, OP! Can fully agree, amazing day and so much fun!

That's awesome, I'm willing to bet money that everyone at our session had a blast.

It's not that hard on the car, it's designed to do it and you're on PS4's. I launched mine like that autocrossing. These cars are pretty stout-much stouter than the f-body I used to beat on 15 years ago and it held up fine to this abuse.

Agreed, the fox body held up to dumping the clutch and a true no lift shift just fine. Ahh, when 225HP at the crank was a monster on the streets.

#10 was my car there too.I’ve done trackdays before but did learn a lot! I had a great time
