That's a great set of pictures of the M1 TA's! Thanks for sharing!3/10/22 Mach 1 Track Attack Concord NC
03 was the instructor's lead car on the track for us.
Three or four groups of 3+ a lead
We're you allowed on the track without the lead car?
Interesting. I wonder why they stopped doing that. Something must of happened I guess for them to change it. For Boss and Shelby TA we would go out in groups of 4 for the lead and follow where each driver follows the lead to learn the lines to run and then we would come in for class. Then we would go out for 20 mins runs by ourselves.
Probably an accident occurred.
Do the second day (in the 2015-series GTs) and you get to go out on an open lap. Rules still apply and they can talk to you the whole time. And yes, accidents do happen -- on the last track session of my Day 2, I broke loose going over the paint stripe out of infield turn 7 and found the wall. I'm delighted to report the restraint systems work GREAT! And, it's worth paying for the limited liability insurance. No complaints at all and I very much want to go back for the Advanced course!
They will ask you upon signing up if you know how to drive a manual. If you say yes, you will get a manual. I think there were 4-5 of 20 that was Auto.
Nice to know there are enough A10s now. It is a different experience. When I went in November 2021, they only had manuals, which wasn't a problem since my previous 'Stang was a 2015 GT Premium w/M6. While I was there, I asked the instructors about driving the A10 and all said it works and put it in Sport or Sport+ and let the car do the work. For those of us with them at home, we need to let the car learn our driving before it feels like it's working with you instead of against.
