For those of you who didn't hear yet, Pati Reard has retired from Saleen as the company makes the move of most administrative operations from Irvine to Troy.
Pati has been a great supporter of SOEC, as well as all Saleen owners and enthusiasts, and she will be missed!
Pati's replacement, Julie Kusiak, is energetic and enthusiastic, and is looking forward to working with us Saleen enthusiasts, and hopes to hold the standard that Pati has set. But since Julie is new to the Saleen hobby, please be patient with her while she settles into her new duties at Saleen in Troy.

Hi Jim, I was very sad to hear that Pati had left Saleen. She was a light in the darkness for a lot of the Saleen owners. She seemed to accomplish what others could not do. She will be missed. I must say for me, she is missed already. I just hoped some of her expertise and capability rubbed off on other employees at Saleen. Considering the two issues that I am currently dealing with, I'm afraid it didn't. Can we twist Pati's arm and get her to come back??? Glad to see the SOEC forum website is back. It has been a great help to me since I bought my first Saleen. Saleen owner's are great people. They have a wealth of information and are always ready to assist other owners. Thanks to you for all of your assistance, also.

Update: at the Knott's show Saleen GM Marques McCammon told me they hired a second person to help fill Pati's "big" shoes, so the new Team Saleen person to contact is:
Janice Anene (janice.anene@saleen.com)
Tel: 248-743-6429
You'll want to e-mail her directly using the link above, as the old Team Saleen e-mail has not been working reliably since Pati retired. Supposedly their IT department is working on it, but the above link should be more direct.
Be sure you provide your full Ford VIN, the Saleen year and production number, your full name and complete contact info, and any other information that may be pertinent to your inquiry so that she can expedite a response.
