Great deal on the LS accessories! And kudos for tipping the salesman. More people should take care of the "service industry" like this. That guy will remember you.

I did not get any tenants with the purchase of my Boss.
(You've got to stop letting your puppy type your responses. :-)
Sorry about that, correcting spelling and grammar is one of my OCD quirks. It drives my family and colleagues crazy)

And if no one has said it, welcome to TMS. Glad you love your Boss. A lot of us are frustrated about the TK release. It has become a great source of humor and razzing between the Boss owners and others. All in good fun ( I think)

 

With all due respect and remember I said with all due respect the whining about the track key is so old now I have no more sympathy for it.

I feel like taking a track key and gouging my eyes out of their sockets at this point. If i hear one more time about how great the car is and how much better it is than anything on the road but I was promised a track key that I would have to pay more for and I'm gonna cry like a little ***** till I get one is old. It's to the point that it is comical.

444 now (but who's counting?)

 

Hey hey hey, not all of us are whining about it. Some of us have more patience than others......

 

David you have never whined one bit and I certainly don't imply that all have whined.

I guess it's those squeaky wheels I'm hearing most.

 

why is your beef with ford if its CARB thats the hold up? government offices take the time they take.

 

and sometimes more just because they can.

Email Questions:

What is the difference in the emission ratings between a 2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 driving with TracKey and driving without TracKey?

Please include the Global Warming Score, Annual Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Smog Score, Emissions Certification Standard and Annual Smog Emissions for the following vehicles:

2012 Ford Mustang Boss Coupe without TracKey
2012 Ford Mustang Boss Coupe with TracKey
2012 Ford Mustang GT500 Coupe

Also, I would like to know what issues Ford is having before they can release TracKey to many anxious 2012 Boss owners.

 

Oh, so close… but yet, so far away! Stay strong guys! I’m right here with you!


Mary Anne is an awesome agent, TheBlues9108. She will get back to you as soon as she gets that info for you.

It'll be available 3/02/12...

 

And also before then, too

 

I'll be honest with you, I had heard and even posted about TracKey on my forums before the car ever hit the streets, back when I had no expectations of buying a BOSS. When the opportunity came up to buy the car, TracKey was the furthest thing from my mind. It was never turned into a selling point while I was molesting the car with my eyes debating if I wanted to pull the trigger on the car, and only came up when the sales person was going through all the documentation on the car, like "oh yeah, there's this TracKey thing you get, too". Cool. I think you, and some others here, are over hyping the collective frustrations over TK not being available yet. The car is a screamer without it. I don't feel like Ford is pulling my chain. To modify a quote from 40 Year Old Virgin, "You're putting the [TracKey] on a pedestal."

As for Ford's silence, I suppose it's already been forgotten that Ford was actively trying to patent the technology behind the TK. Trade secrets being what they are, it doesn't surprise me one bit that we haven't heard more from Ford on the matter.

 

All the technology was taken from the MyKey program.

 

In my opinion the trackey adds to the allure, personality, and all out coolness of the car. It was definitely something that was on my mind when I was thinking about buying and then when I finally pulled the trigger.

I have been waiting very patiently for it to come out, and am happy to hear I won't be disappointed.....

I can understand while others are "anxious" as well...

 

I lot of us remember when it was called the "Leno key". It's been a looooooong wait.

 

Even if that's true, it'll be good enough for me. Last track day of the season is this Saturday and I obviously won't have track key for it (which certainly means I'll get passed by every Miata and Volkswagen Golf on the track), so whether it's 11/2/2011 or 3/02/12 makes no difference to me

 

Will post track review Thanksgiving weekend...back to back dynos sometime around that point as well

 

Carry on pioneer

 

lol...you did your part already!
