Revell makes a 1993 Cobra. You post on any Mustang sites? And also what have you modded? Did you take out the silencer?

my car started life as a 2.3L / automatic, it now is a 5.0L / 5 speed. I have more mods than most mustangs.
I'm actually taking it autocrossing tomorrow near sacramento. My car makes about 300hp and I have ford racing suspension on it with 10" wide sticky tires 
I post on corral.net and californiafords.com as blind.

I usually hang around at SVT Performance. I post as T-Bolt there (like the drag car). So you did a GT-40 pretty much. I gather it's a T5 you have in there now. I saw a beautiful notch a while ago. FR500 wheels, light blue, and a single turbo. Pick up the latest issue of 5.0 & SF. They have a GT with 2 turbo coupe turboes (the smaller ones from the auto version), and it runs 10s. He spent under 1k for the whole kit. When the last time someone's spent 4k on an import and gotten a 10 second stormer?

I have gt-40 heads, edelbrock performer intake manifold, and a trick flow stage 1 cam.
turbo's are cool, but my car is fast enough, it barks going into 3rd and pulls hard in every gear. It ran a 13.1 @ 104mph at sac raceway back when the engine was completely stock.
But I like to autocross more than go in a straight line, I still have my slicks but they just sit by the side of the house now, heh.

I can't wait for my car. Big change from 88 hp (lowest power rating on a Mustang EVER), huh?

I only drove it as a 4 banger once and that was enough  It was raining when I brought it home and I couldn't get it to even fishtail going around corners 
now if I'm not careful I can spin it 90 degree's shifting into 2nd gear on the street, lol.

Since it is not an everyday car, you should look into some Nitto 555Rs. They're drag radials designed to be driven to the track on, and are sticky as hell. It would help with autoxing too.

viper: drag radials are hell are clutches and trannies. If I want to stick I already have a set of 26x10 mickey thompson ET street's It's just not important to me, I dont like to beat on the car as I've put too much work into it to just blow it up.

Yeah, but if you launch well and don't get real hard on it (like duimping the clutch at 5500), you shouldn't have a big problem with it.
This is something you might like. Yesterday I met a guy at a car show who has an ORIGINAL 1969 Boss 429  . I saw it last year, but yesterday he had a big block 66 vette convertible with him. The Boss is so sweet! It only has 2 non-original things: a caution decal and the dash pad. The car is so sweet!

yea those big boss's are pretty sweet
I took my car for a spin today so I finally have a profile picture of it.
suspension:
ford motorsports 'b' coil springs
fms front sway bar + poly bushing endlinks
factory rear sway bar
all suspension and bushings are brand new poly.
flaming river manual steering rack (standard ratio kit)
It rides pretty firm, but I dont notice it unless I hit a pothole, on the highway it rides nicer than my truck does.
