How many Boss owners not racing theirs?

I was just trying to get a idea how many Boss owners don't expect to race there cars.
I predict most will just drive to enjoy, and use for cruise nights and car shows.
I will be using it mainly for fun driving and maybe this month try at least 1 track event.
SEPT 11 is a drag race event but im not sure if im ready to do that to the car.

Track and drag race...meaning anything besides washing and waxing and looking at it..
We have alot of people with Mustangs in my area who trailer there cars to car shows.
I've had mine since Aug 18 th and have 498 miles on it.

I will track it a couple of times but mostly cruising and the occasional long distance trip out of state or to the country.

Closest track to me is about 3 hrs away, so I don't anticipate being able to enjoy it on the track that often. If I was closer it'd be a different story, but, it is what it is. I just have to get creative in my route around town to come up with my own track.

Tracking mostly, but my other boss wants us to take it on a tour of the original Route 66 or whats left of it.

I have no use for garage queens.

I attended Track Attack on August 31st and my first track day is scheduled for September 25th. My plan is to attend 3-4 track days a year and toss in a couple of autocrosses. I don't plan on participating in any car shows but I might.

I must be sick then. I have 12 track days in the Boss and the nearest track is 5 hours away.

TWO BIG WARNINGS! If you take it to the track, you will get addicted. It is so easy to drive and is so much fun I cannot even begin to tell you. You will feel like a superstar passing all of these other "race" cars.
Second BIG warning... If you do track it do not let your wife try it. Mine had next to 0 interest in tracking and now I have to wrestle with her for a turn. To top it off, I am saving every penny I get and am now on the list for a 2013 because she wants this one. I guess it's only money...

Haven't tracked a car I own for nearly 20 years. This car begs me too.

As was said before, you only have to try it once and you will be infected
