ReSpeed has some exciting news for 2011 and we wanted to make this
post to let you all know about it.
As of March 2011, Sam Hammoudeh (AKA dj55b on the forums) has taken
over operations of the manufacturing and shipping of the ReSpeed
product line. Sam’s manufacturing company is based in London, ON
Canada and will introduce the added benefit of a store front for the
ReSpeed line and the customers.
Sam and I have been working on this transformation for over six months
and feel it to be a huge positive for the ReSpeed line in all aspects.
More of the manufacturing can now be handled in house which allows for
increased prototyping and new product offerings. The store front
aspect allows for product installations and a broader group of
offerings by the brand. Strategically placing the shipping hub for the
manufactured items in London relieves the Canadian customers of
inbound duties while not increasing the cost for the USA nor overseas
customers. Many of the brand name items will still be shipped from our
USA warehouse.
Sam has many great ideas for increased products within the ReSpeed
line as well as additional vehicle coverage. Many of you have followed
Sam and his post throughout the years and understand he has the
dedication and forward thinking needed to build upon the product line.
Through heavy planning, the transition has been seamless to the
customers and has been fully completed. We strive for each and every
one of our customers to have a positive experience and you were the
highest priority.
I have enjoyed developing products and building a company that serves
the greatest group of automotive enthusiast around. When the ReSpeed
line started in 2004 it was in reaction to fill a need within a
forgotten set of unique vehicles. Thanks to a great group of customers
it is accomplishing that and has grown each and every year since. I
set out on a mission to offer top quality products with the respect
and honesty you guys and gals deserve. Introducing the standards and
methodologies from professional level motorsports into our products
was and will continue to be our flair.
As I have accepted a new position that requires my day to day
attention I will not be able to give to the ReSpeed line what it
deserves. The opportunity was simply too great to pass up and is
something I have been striving for and building up to for years. I
will still be involved with the product line and new part development.
You will still see me active on the forums as time permits and will
still be happy to answer any technical PMs . After all I have been a
rotorhead since the late eighties, and as we all know, that does not
subside easily.
A sincere and deep thank you to all the customers, past and future,
that have help build a truly unique company and product line. I know
that without you ReSpeed would not be alive.
See you at the track!
