It should be in Ford and Mustang Motorsports. I'm sure one of the mods will move it for you.
It should be pretty obvious why they don't enter the Mustang in the IRL, as it is not an Indy Car. Minardi and Jaguar/Cosworth are Formula One teams (Actually Jag was just bought out by Red Bull), and the Mustang wouldn't fit in there, either.
I'd love to see a few Stangs in ALMS, and it may happen in the next couple years, though probably in the GT2 class, so as not to step on Aston Martin's toes in GT1. There are a few Mustangs in Speed World Challenge GT, which usually runs as a support race to ALMS. In the season finale at Laguna Seca, Boris Said in a Cobra was the only one that got anywhere near Wolf Henzler's Porsche for the win. There are also few Stangs in Grand Am Cup's GS class. I very clearly remember the Zippo Saleen landing on it's roof right in front of me at Mid-O last year, and one of the new '05s qualified 3rd for the race at Daytona today, which won't be shown on Speed Channel until March 5th. There are also a few in Trans Am, but except for rare guest appearances by Boris, they really don't have anything for the Rocketsports Jags. They also run in a few different SCCA classes, including GT-1, American Sedan, and Touring 1 and 2. Unfortunately, the only SCCA club races that get televised are the Runoffs, which happen in September and get show in late November and early December.
