As Cartman would say; jesus-tap-dancing christ how many times does this question need to be asked & answered?!?

It was, is & always will be pronounced "Suh (as in DUH!)-Leen".

Actually I was thinking about changing the windshield banners on my cars to read " S U H L E E N " so all the tools will stop pronouncing it SAY LEEEN.


Georgia Tech.


I hope that answers you question. Peace.

Being as I'm a UGA Fan and not a TECH fan, I can see where your roommates would not know the difference in how to say Steves name. But I still don't agree with the spelling of "GO DAWGS"! Good lord the south can be so illiterate. No I'm not from Georgia. I just like UGA. OK enough about picking on Georgia Tech Students... LOL...... Now the other gripe I have is about NOS!! It is NOT pronounced.... "noz"!! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I must confess I used to pronouce it say-lean, but then I watched a show on speed channel about Saleen, and I heard them say it the right way. That was a few years ago and I've said suh-leen ever since

You're right about Yous Guyz. My wife and inlaws are all from "Jersey".
If your car isn't ready ,you had better bring Yvonnes. We are not having very much turnout so far. I thought out of 100 club members and surrounding families we could get 20 cars to participate for our Dyno Day. I guess I was wrong. I'm gonna call everyone on my list a week before the event,and if I don't get at least 10 cars I'm gonna cancel it. I'm not gonna Waste Jeffs Time. I'm embarrassed for GARMC.
