Would they do this if SVT was done?
George Ayres makes the move to Ford’s Special Vehicle Team and he brings with him an impressive resume of performance work with Jaguar. Mr. Ayres has worked on Jag’s return to Trans-Am racing the XKR Silverstone in 2001 and concept cars such as the XK-RS and Concept Eight. He replaces Tom Scarpello as the SVT marketing and sales manager.

Hells to the yeah!.... (I wonder how that's going to sound comin' out of the filter) Sounds like they decided to be part of the solution, instead of contributing to the problem (of SVT not being profitable enough). You know... now that I think about it.... I don't think I've ever seen a single add for an SVT product. Not a 1. A little marketing might do them some good.... people won't consider the competition (for the Viper, the Corvette, and Eurotrash..... did I say that?) if they don't know there is any.
