Ford Wants To Save You... And Your Shelby GT350

We often say that today’s most powerful cars won’t get driven to their full potential; since they are expensive and are often bought by people who have more money than talent behind the wheel, they are condemned to being driven slowly through congested city centres.

This won’t be the case for the Shelby GT350. Since it is based on a "regular" Mustang and boasts a thorough racing pedigree, we can expect that buyers will use their cars on a track. To help them survive the experience, the manufacturer will graciously offer a program where Ford Racing teachers will help buyers hone their skills.

For GT350 and GT350R owners, the one-day experience is free; however, you have to pay for lodging and airfare to the Miller Motorsports Park in Utah. If you wish, you can also pay for a second day, where you will have the opportunity to drive a Ford Mustang Boss 302.
