Well, let's look at both sides:
He disobeyed your request for him to drive resposibly in the car and you made it clear going in that he would lose his license. You made the rule, now you must stick to it if you are going to retain credibility in what you say to your son reguarding disipline. He didn't take you seriously this time and decided to street race.
Other side, he is safe and unharmed so you could modify the disipline by making him drive a junker and make the Mustang a "drag strip only" car. That is probably what I would do. The point remains that there must be disipline. Remember when making decisions about disiplining your children, they have to be decisions YOU can live with as well.
Good luck and keep us updated.
