Looks mean. The cobra in the background looks intense too, but looks can be deceiving.
What modifications have you done to the 'stang to get it track prepped? Do you think it will handle as well? are the new body styles still solid axle rear ends or have they moved to an independent setup?
I know I can fit into an mustang with ample head room, so that might be a move for me to do if i plan on getting into a track car.
If you wouldn't mind pming me a good place to start searching up different canadian racing classes. I want to get my nephew involved ASAP so he's got an opportunity to be an infamous race car driver.

Before this goes to far.......
Just pulling your legs a bit. This car is owned by a buddy of Al's and mine in Vancouver who also owns a number of other race cars including an ALMS Porsche GT3 RS that ran in the series last year.
The Boss 302S is one of only 50 cars that have been built and is a very well engineered and built car. Interesting in that he has a pair of 2000 Cobra R's, a street car and a fully done race car. The Cobra R's are independently sprung and handle rough tracks extremely well. Comparing them to this version, with over 200 less horsepower, it's almost as fast as his race Cobra R. He told me that it turns in like no other car that he has driven and with the live axle, has a tendency to power oversteer coming out of the corners compared to the Cobra R. All in all a superior car.
I was surprised to see that the number on it from his last race weekend was "23" and I teased him that I appreciated him buying the car for me, but its a bit far from Oakville for me to race it. All of the cars have been spoken for and I couldn't afford to buy it if they were making more.
