The smileys are your friends...



So, fine, here ya go:







The Boss 302 Recaros have no 5th slot for anti-submarine belts, the way these others do:

 

Aside from all the good advice on the first page of this thread, there is actually a page in the BOSS Owner's Manual that tells what owners should do to prepare for track use. Read that ****!

 

Do NOT buy a Corbeau reclining seat if you're interested in getting a track seat, they have crap welds and will break with time. Their one-piece seats should be fine

This is considered a "free mod" by every amateur race sanctioning body I can think of. Not too comfy for the street, but it makes an enormous difference on the track. You just feel so planted and in control of the car. Really helps.

 

thanks that clears things up. your ideas are great. I am going to call miller motorsports and sign up for my free track day, then I can see what mods they do to there track boss's. I hope they are all ls's

 

I do not believe they have all LS's. Regular Boss's as well.

And I believe the Boss's they will have at the track may have cages preinstalled for their particular track use.

 

called miller motorsports and they are still waiting for there boss's as of 3/24/11. brian is to email me with there track event times. I hope they get them soon, Im ready to go

 

Me 2!

 

Don't mean to thread-jack, but I've heard you say that about the Corbeau before, so I would stay away from their recliners, but have you heard if Sparco or Recaro's reclining models are okay (not the Boss Recaro, but their aftermarket ones)?

 

I got this return email from miller motosports:

Steve,

At this time Ford has not formally completed this with us. While we know it is coming we are not able to sign you up until we know when we will get our cars. They are later than expected, but we expect we'll be doing the Boss Attack program for Ford this year, and I suspect soon than later. I'll make certain you are among the first to know dates once we do. If you need to make arrangements now for time off I'd encourage doing it in the second half of the year until further notice…let's stay in touch on this and feel free to call me anytime.

Regards,


Bryan Samuels

maybe this should be it's own thread ?

 

I'd be willing to bet that both the OEM and aftermarket Recaros will be fine. Corbeau just makes cheap product.

 

I'm scheduled to go on April 21st with an add-on day on the 22nd in an FR500S...but it's not officially booked due to lack of cars!

All my travel and lodging is already set up lol

 

that day would be good for me to, but brian would not take my booking. I'm going for the extra day to. what are you paying? I think the fr500 is 1395.00 extra, 995.00 for a gt, is that wright? thanks
p.s. not going if there are no boss's

 

Read the manual that is poster on line and it will explain how to set the car up for track DE events.For wheel to wheel check with the event body.

 

They're definitely the cheapest seats out there, price wise, I've seen a few at the track but haven't sat in any yet. I'm thinking of going Sparco eventually, they have some cheaper FIA seats, Recaro's are quite pricey.

If a Boss or LS owner were going that route of fully replacing them, I'm sure those OEM Recaro's would sell real quick, likely more than what an aftermarket would cost!

 

MODS

How about a stickey?

 

I kind of expected all the Boss'es that were used at LS for Media day would have been shipped to Miller for the track days. Seemed kind of logical but I guess not.

 

Is this the correct part for our 2012 Boss for SS Brake Lines?
Any other good options out there?
I checked TOPBRAKES.com and they did not list the Goodridge option as available. Maybe I was looking in the wrong place.

Just curious, but does our Boss owners manual recommend changing out the OE brake lines for these stainless steel braided lines?
If it does good to know.
If it does not, why do you think it is "necessary"?
