As a Ford employee, I don't even have words to describe how excited this makes me. I have looked up to Raj since I was in college and even referenced him in several of my papers while at Ferris.

He's one of the guys I hope to run into someday. A man that does not settle and understands what it takes to get the job done. Truly the man for the job.

Thanks for the kind words! After 5 years, I will definitely miss heading Product Development and especially Ford Performance but I'm looking forward to the new role. Hopefully, I'll still make it to the races once in a while and see you at GT events. Take care! - Raj

Congratulations Raj!! It took vision, guts and persistence to go ahead with the "Phoenix" project and then win Le Mans. Ford NA has a proven leader!
