Are you getting any cluncking or strange noises from the rear of the car? Or any strange noises anywhere else.

NO. I just got back from San Jose thats a long drive from Brentwood so im leaning towards my brakes draging.I got into a decent race on the freeway though just about topped out in 5th.The other car was a sweet silver GT i think. I just wish we could have raced from a dead stop it woulda been a damn good race.

I had this problem with my 5.0L in my Jeep. I think it turned out to be a vaccuum leak, cause after i replaced the cracked PCV valve hose it hasn't done it anymore. Feels like theres no acceleration? Have you floored it while its doing it to see what happens? Mine acted like i switched on the nitrous after it would bog down like that. I don't think my 5.0 in my Jeep is still running perfect.

Find out the stock vaccuum on your engine, burrow a vacuum tool form a friend or go buy one and connect it to someplace on your engine and check to see what it reads. If its lower than stock then i suggest check all your hoses, and connections. I don't know what sensor your talking about sorry i haven't worked on any newer Mustangs than 98.

Is there a chip or timing adjuster on the car? If so you might want to see where your timing is at.
