The new Viper ACR Performance info in the link below has me pretty fired up about Ford Performance's policy of not publishing performance numbers.

It's beyond me how a division dedicated to performance has not published any official times for the GT350 and GT350R. Heck I don't even think they've published the official top speed. While I know neither GT350 will slay track records like the ACR it's important to let potential buyers know what the car is capable of in the hands of a good driver in good conditions. Instead Ford puts itself at the mercy of crap testing like Motor Trend did.
I'd really like to see Ford follow SRT's lead and demonstrate what their vehicles are really capable of and end this silly policy of not providing performance info. Partnering with a third party like the SCCA would be even better.
