Registeration Full

[Maxx]

I just received the following email three hours ago. DC is the closest to me and it looks like it was full before the email was sent to me. Is Ford messing with me? or this is a Phishing scam? Those of you that got a legitimate email, does this look familiar? Is this a cruel Psych experiment?

Did anyone received an invitation today (9/23/2021) and was able to register?

p.s. Relying to email bounces. I called Ford and they were no help.

Probably just a poorly timed marketing email, slots filled up quick. Emails may have been sent out earlier to certain people, or enough people responded before you did.

I know DC was full long before I got the email. I am fairly certain no spot was available anywhere when the email was sent to me. It is either incompetent robots running amok or there is a working link that is not shared in the email.

From what I've seen in comments on past events these have been filling up very quickly. Ford is certainly sending out thousands of emails for each event and there's maybe a few hundred slots available. There's also the possibility of delays in processing the email on both the sending and receiving email servers so it's entirely possible people could have gotten the message 20,30, or maybe even 60 minutes before you did.
I've also read of people refreshing the site for a while and eventually seeing availability

Email for me popped up at exactly 3pm. I registered immediately but when I went back in 10 minutes later it was full. For Daytona.

I received the email at about 3pm. There were only a few spots left when I signed up. Glad I didn’t wait to ask the boss for time off… ?

Man this is rough. 10 minute window for email? I never check my email that often. I need to figure out how to filter and rig Ford emails to a bullhorn.

Any DC people need a ride along?

If anybody is anywhere close to the Detroit area there is an outdoor auto show going on this weekend. Its called Motor Bella, which is on 78 acres, and has a off road course and track. Ford is giving rides in the Lightning, Bronco, and Mach E all weekend on the hot track. The other part of the big 3 also have numerous vehicles to ride in, we got to take a nice five foot high jump in a TRX at about 40 mph. We hit the press day and got a few rides, the Lightning was a fun ride and does a nice job smoking the tires, nice truck, not sure Im ready to turn in my ICE for one yet.

In my recent experience at (Los Angeles) Fontana, CA, you really don't need the appointment time slot.
A lot of people just showed up without a reservation.
Just show up with your reservation number and they will let you in.

Where’s DC location?

I was able to register for the NYC one(MetLife stadium), the email popped up on my computer at 3pm registered right away and went back in 15mins later and said it was full.

When I registered for Denver the slots were gone within 10 minutes. I was in fast and had my pick. However I never got a confirmation email so I didn’t attend.

 

[tbinmd]

I received the email at 3:01pm, registered right away.When I registered time slots were available for 1600, 1630, 1700, 1730 & 1800

DC is at FedEX field. Not a good time of day to be on that side of the beltway.
