Hello there Revolutionists,

I need your guys help with this.  Carl and I would like to know how helpful or influential we've been in regards to your Track purchases.  We're out here helping because we enjoy helping you but we never really know our true value here.  We'd appreciate your input, thanks for taking the time.

I also realize there are many who don't have an account set up to reply but it would be very helpful to hear from you guys as well, thanks again.

Rick I know you will help me sooner or letter. I know I poseted already but I just have to say that without Carls one on one help these past 3 years I would have left the game when I started to slump bad. I know he convinced me that i had to just work on stuff. I know I wouldnt even be posting this if it wasnt for carl. I would never had started my junior year of highschool. So I just want to say thanks Carl and maybe I can go to chicago with him to hang with you rick. Carl I know you will read this so PLEASE SIGN YOUR CONTRACT, IF YOU DONT NOT ONLY DOES TRACK LOSE A GREAT STAFFER BUT THEY JUST LOSE A GREAT GUY IN GENERAL. Have fun.

Both of you guys have been a tremendous help when looking into new equipment.  Your mini-reviews and full reviews have given me insight into the ball characteristics and behavior that I can't get anywhere else.  It also helps that I  have virtually the same hand measurements as Rick does, so I can try out his equipment before I buy! LOL  Keep up the great work!

I would both helpful and influential. Rick, you gave me some excellent advice on how to drill up a Delta 1. I just purchased a used Delta from dave300 and used your suggested setup. I love it! Those who placed videos of the Delta let me see how the ball moves and hits. Needless to say that my reaction with the ball was as consistent and successful. there are very knowledgeable posters on this board. You all do a great job!

Extremely helpful and GREATLY appreciated. Whenever I am trying to decide between balls I refer to your input to help me make those final decisions on new equipment. Again, greatly appreciated.

I think I speak for Rick....as well as myself when I say "thank you to each and every one of you". Your kind words and comments are greatly appreciated. Rick and I have both been here for a long time.

We have developed relationships with each of you as if we were your own personal pro shop operator. You can count on us to continue to help each of you to the best of our ability.

Thanks again, you cannot possibly know how great it is to hear that we have a value to you. It shows that we have not put in all of the effort that we have for nothing.

Carl and Rick  have both been extremely helpful to me this past year and I appreciate it more than they will ever know. Just wish Rick was still able to help like he once did before he took on a new job as he has really taught me a lot this past year. Especially in terms of lay-outs, Pin & MB positions that will work for my style and the ones to stay away from for my style and etc. And of coarse Carl has done likewise and still does, even as recent as today.

No one speaks for me!....well, okay, maybe Carl can.  He's right, I'd also like to personally thank all of you for your kind words and your time in replying.  This is not about anything for our personal egos but to see if we have had some influence in your Track purchases and how we've helped as staffers in trying to get you your desired reaction.  

Track equipment or not, we've also tried to help many out here reach their goals and better themselves in this great sport.  Carl and I are trying to see if it would be worthwhile to move our support to another site where we can control the environment and not have to deal with any unwanted posts.  What are your guys thoughts on that?  Appreciate the feedback again....thanks and remember it's Valentines Day, don't forget your presents!

Hey Carl, what are you getting me?...

Rick,
You and all the other great staffers and posters on this forum were a major factor in my decision to start primarily using Track.
I know I can always come in here and post or PM a question to a staffer or other knowledgable person in here and get a honest and unbiased opinion.
Of all the forums on here I feel that the Track forum is the most helpful and kind to each other. I can't recall anyone ever flaming someone for their opinion or other post they disagreed with. It seems to me that there is a strong family feel in here.
I feel that a big reason for this is the leaders in here lead by example and are always friendly and eager to help, that make all of you a great asset to BR.com and Track.
My last 3 purchases were strongly ifluenced by many of you.
Rule, Delta 1 and Elite Remix are the last 3 I bought and my next is going to be a Desert Heat, crossing fingers and hoping it will be very soon.
Rick you got one layin around by chance since you also use 14# equipment
The level of product quality and the diversity of the current lineup is a major factor too of course. If we could finally get a cool spare ball the line would be complete.

Rick, you are the one that got me here. If you and Carl move, then I would have to leave Track. Blackmail????? No, not really, but the other sites are harder for people like myself to navigate. Despite all of the problems on this site  caused mostly by the inmature kids and and even some of the smart alec answers by some of the more mature-knowledgeable ones, I bite my tounge and tend to stay on this site because of it's simplicity to use.

I was thinking one of two things:

1- some performance enhancing drugs to give you some ball speed (athletic performance only, tell the wife I said sorry )

2- some basic chocolates to fatten ya up a bit.

I am relatively new to this site, and had been using Track even before coming here, but this site and your groups dialogue and info has been very educational.  Not alot of people throw Track around here, so I do not get much in the way of feedback from others throwing what I am throwing.  I think the most helpful part of this forum is the knowledge of the people giving the advice and information.  Its right on the button, and I can put that to my game and make solid decisions based on it.  There are a few that exaggerate and make things up, but there are alot more on the other ball sites.  Thank everyone for sharing and making everything even Track even better.

Oh, one more item, if I may -

Carl & Rick,

You can chalk up at leat 5+ more Track NEW ball sales, just from your posts (with a tiny bit of help from Anthony C). I've bought an Xception, a Rule, Delta1, 2 CrunchTimes, a Solution PP Ex (there must be another or two; just can't think of them now). Tell Del that!

Hey, you Track pseudo-fanatics,

If you can't ascribe the number of Track balls you bought just from Carl's and Rick's advice and posts, then you ain't properly thanked them YET! Give them something CONCRETE to take back, for accounting purposes!!
