The instructors were super knowledgeable and very helpful in helping students become more skilled drivers.
Don't know if they give you the handle. They are all model. Call or email for price listing. Premium Account. DustBuster said:. Who else got the e-mail about getting dibs at buying the used academy cars?

I think this is good to have in the forum as it shows what the Ford racing school did to make sure these cars could be beat-on on a regular basis. Nov 10, I got the email! Not sure if the timing is right but man it would make a great one!
Any idea on what they are going to be asking for them? Not too bad. I got it, called about pricing almost considered picking up one. Prices are pretty damn good. I could literally buy one easily if I decided too. Thought about it. Fiesta is , focus is , heard this afternoon that most are spoken for already! I see this with the old dodge neon challenge cars which have changed hands many times and are still cherished. Little kids and adults alike can get excited and have a good time at this place.

Traveler rating. Only then, pull. Practice makes perfect. A driver completing the parking box turn at the autocross practice. Video: Brenna Porterfield. To end the day, the autocross exercises are connected into one large course. The course starts with a degree skidpad turn into two hard right corners; then, barriers are used as slaloms to gate the entrance to the figure eight. Slaloming through even more cones, the driver finishes by screaming into the parking box - extra points for all 4 wheels within the cones.
I came in shy at 54 seconds even, but found that I'd not suffered a loss of enjoyment because of it. Making our way back to the parking lot after an exhausting day of cramming knowledge and practice into ourselves, we reflected upon what we'd learned.
The Ford Performance Racing School was founded to instill wonder and excellent driving skills in those who love horsepower and handling - both on and off of the track.
Learning, living, and breathing the Focus and Fiesta STs at the Octane Academy gave us drivers the chance to experience what we couldn't do on the road - and take home skills that we could use during our daily commutes, or spirited backroad drives.
Above all, we could certainly agree that the Focus and Fiesta STs had no business being discontinued in the US - as there are no other cars in the segment quite full of character or with such enthusiastic manufacturer support. I got on a plane home, and went for a long and spirited and wonderful drive as soon as I could get in the driver's seat. Brenna, you've captured the experience perfectly. I'd never driven on a track of any kind until OA and now I want more.
Thanks, Rich! The Octane Academy was my first track experience as well - and I can't wait to get back on one. The Focus and Fiesta STs That looks like so much fun! Great event article Brenna! Tim Rodie.
